This photo was known as to the photography world as a revolutionary photo because it was giving a glimpse of the world war would be like later on. The man in the photo who is jumping over the puddle is known to be jumping in to the wilderness in the other world that Europe was jumping into the wilderness. So this photo is very powerful evidence that Henri Cartier-Bresson was a mastermind behind the camera because if this photo was taken a second quicker or slower the picture would have been a lot different.
Henri Cartier-Bresson is one of the first people to use and own a leica camera. The leica was with a 35mm or maybe even 50mm lens. Henri never used flash because he said "[i]mpolite...like coming to a concert with a pistol in your hand."
War Time Photography
Although photo journalism doesn’t give the whole true story but an Image could be a powerful and do show emotion and makes you think what could be going through the soldiers minds.
Eddie Adams Captured a powerful photo which changed the course of history. He captured the execution of a Vietcong prisoner. Which made America pull out of the Vietnam war.
For me Robert capa was an amazing photographer in the sense that he really did capture the moment in war time photography and showed what gruesome and ugly war is.Robert Capa worked for Life magazine. The most famous work of his was the 'Dying Lost Solider'
Robert capa Went to D-Day with the first batch of soldier and the photographs show the struggle of the soldiers.
Tony Vaccro who was a solider in the army, then inspired by the work of Tony Vaccro decided to take his own journey into war time photography. Tony Vaccro was famously recognized for the World War 2 photographs that he took. The photos that he took were iconic and had a deep story behind them. He used a Argus C3 camera.
