Street Photographer:Henri Cartier-Bresson

Henri Cartier-Bresson is a photographer who pioneered the genre of street photography, and conceived of photography as capturing a decisive moment.I learned a lot of knowledge about street photography which was created by him before I knew him.

On the street, he can see the person who has rich narrative and quickly catch the their best and natural dynamics and expressions.


He can also find creative angles to create contrast, setting off or satire.

His photos always are good at framing.And his picture always tells stories.And make us think about them so we can be absorbed in to his works.

Josef Koudelka is a Czech Photograher  who’s most famous images were of the Warsaw Pact invasion of Prague in 1968.His photography works are good at narrative and composition skills.

Street Photographer:Anna Delany

I prefer to looking for somewhere few people in the city.And I enjoy the silent atmosphere of those places.Anna Delany can give me many inspirations for shooting those places. This picture shows her great framing ability.I still need to improve my sight to quickly make up a frame in my mind. I can't understand how to shoot like this picture.Really amazing. These pictures shoots the abandoned buildings inside.I used to explore these places in China before I started photographing.And I always had trouble with adjusting the colours.But now these photos tell me that black and white can well show the old feeling without the dirty colours.
