This photo has been taken in 1993 by a man named Henri Cattier Bresson. He was known as a big game hunter. he skulked around places looking for a moment that could be captured and remembered in history. He used to sit in a place for hours just waiting for something to happen and hopefully it could be captured by him.
This image represents the conflict between countries the broken rings and wheels represent the troubles that countries had in those times whilst the man is representing europe and how it is taking a leap into the unknown. The broken wheels are represented as the oldest problem people have had was to have a broken wheel because without wheels you could not travel anywhere. Henri pried his camera through a gap in the fence and took this amazing photograph which is known as the best photo of all time.
This is the camera that was used by Henri to capture the most important moment of the 20th century. This camera was used by Cartier Bresson to take snapshots of the most controversial and influencial photos of his age. the good things about this camera are that it is light therefore the photographer can easily aim the camera at anything he wants. This camera was the pinnacle of decisive moment photography because it was light and unlike other cameras could take photos quickly.
