Henri Cartier-Besson Photographs

[@mirden1953]

The music is so beautiful. From the movie Somewhere in Time. Perfect!

[@lawrenceoliverchew]

Beautiful music and very touching too. Brings me down memory lane!

[@martindz000]

Indeed !!!!

[@ВалерийИвановичМайборода]

Брессон, який чудовий фотомайстер!!! Скільки разів дивився на його фото, і все більше розкривав його красу. Яке задоволення!!! В них і образи, і час, і поезія. Просто чудо!..

[@madmangazza]

A lesson in how to tell a story with a camera. Some incredible images from a very talented man!! Thanks for sharing !

[@mra1948]

A superb choice of music from one of my favorite films which was full of "decisive moments."

[@aliandrewlogro5937]

What is the title of this instrumental background music pls ? Thank you .

[@uwekienle8939]

Unglaublich tolle Fotos. Beinahe wie back to the Roots. Heute strebt man nach Perfektion und dem letzten Pixel Schärfe, aber diese Bilder erzählen eine Geschichte. Sehr beeindruckend und zu nachdenken.

[@vicowiz1]

The music is kinda soothing, but makes me feel like crying too..

[@terryallen9546]

Beautiful! We dressed so well back then. Almost impossible to take an elegant street photo anymore.

[@m96920]

So true.

[@adamcharlottelotan4558]

Apart from the misspelling - an epic, beautiful production. Thank you!

[@martindz000]

Beautiful pictures. Great photographer !!!

[@MrArtyparty]

Brilliant! an artist that knew how to use the camera like a brush or pencil on canvas. I can only hope to come half as close in my work.

[@kitther]

Great song and editing. Thanks.

[@elwoodblues452]

A beautiful ode, well done!

[@kindface]

This theme song perfectly complements the emotional content of HCB's moments.

[@LokkieF]

In that time a photographer was a well respected person. People were delighted when someone took a picture of them. When digital became common, it was all over.

[@leemartin2978]

This is a beautiful post, both music and images are so good

[@KAGilligan]

Thank you. Lovely.

[@Charles-mp3ey]

Nice job with only the photos and the matching music 👍👍👍

[@vivian3829]

Que interesantes fotografías 👌 una visión muy peculiar....

[@whatagreatday4906]

what a strong body of work. Black and white photography is really a lot more difficult than people think. It's really in its own world, its own skill set

[@robertmchugh4639]

Yes, it accentuates the mood well.

[@Alevtinahahaha]

Спасибо большое!!! Окунулась с головой в прошлое, прекрасные снимки!!!

[@mascotwithadinosaur9353]

My das is a photographer and Henry is his fav. photographer. I may not know much about photography, but one thing is sure, Bresson's stuff is something special.

[@paulsancheski8618]

One of Cartier-Bresson's best attributes is his compositional genius, which is lost in the zooms, pans and crops employed to make this video interesting. Sorry, but it is a disservice to not show his images in their entirety, if only momentarily at the beginning or end of each display.

[@doggerinoosan5394]

Love how he works a scene always moving in little steps. 🙂

[@maxheadroom7687]

Beautiful! Thanks for posting😎👍🇦🇺

[@AndresRuiz-gs8vm]

Brilliant work 😍

[@skymedic48]

Bresson at the time, was what ansel adams is to us. He was and is a true master of film, he has an uncanny way of making us feel the story he is telling in his photography.

[@fandangofandango2022]

Pure Passion.

[@CarlosSanchez-kd8et]

Beautiful photographies , tks God on that times didnt exist Photoshop. Pure creativity and talent.

[@hsheist9407]

@Phil W Not so sure ... Perhaps a dozen orig HCB here in the cottage ... most magazine repros ... whether printed by Pierre Gaussman in Paris ... he used agfa paper or Sid Kaplan in NYC ...or Modernage who used Kodak ... all HCB work. Don't know of a major print he made. They tend to be a touch flat on the kodak papers... the black built into the Agfa with extra sliver maybe. I've spent hours myself in labs ... pretty difficult to get 2 good prints exactly the same... they don't have to be. The early prints in decisive moment ... also here ... are half tones the recent publication prints are all improved via Sci-Tex ... the system is just better.... The photograph is there on the neg. Particularly with him. As I collected the magazine repros they are the work of a magazine photographer. As he said himself ... sometimes he didn't see the photographs for months and months until he returned to France. This is a different time. The comparison is so difficult to hold. No plastic bags for litter ... no terrible t shits with rockers ... simply less intrusion. The visual mass communication was mags papers and billboards. Bill Klein shot it and thrived on it HCB avoided it it and worked differently. Compositions are too intentional and complex for Photoshop ... its like the facelifts on the poor women on TV. Of course the names of the operations in photoshop are from the darkroom, shadows are easier opened ... contrast changes ... these photographs were born in the moment.

[@davec28]

Thank you,

[@krazywally5685]

Great vid and compilation well done 👍

[@michaelfuller2153]

Nicely done! I had forgotten his meeting Alfred Stiglitz.

[@cvonhongkong966]

Some are beautiful, some are meaningful, some are historic, some are 3 in 1

[@consumertester5665]

I agree that there should have been no zoom effect applied to these photos. The entire point of Cartier-Bresson's photographs was their composition, to be seen in its original form, as was intended.

[@martindz000]

But it was a beautiful trip

[@andreusalleras4828]

Masterpiece!!

[@Crabeanticorps]

Vert nice vidéo thanks.

[@RickGTI2019]

Genius !

[@willtopower2158]

Nice work Marlene!!

[@vgabrie]

The finest of them all...

[@rajavelusubbian-253]

I am also a street photographer from this video we can come to know the purpose of street photography and could learn great video

[@hezigler]

I appreciate your good intentions and the obvious great effort you put into the production of this beautiful video. However, IMHO the scrolling and panning within any of this master's photographs is like cropping them. Something the master wouldn't do or allow. All of these photographs are great works of art and can stand alone by themselves without video techniques.

[@steenhillebrecht]

Herb Zigler couldn’t agree more

[@log791]

Agree.

[@suzannabienkowski2033]

I agree. As someone who did both film and videography, along with regular photo, I definitely think that this whole body of work could have been presented in a better fashion.

[@robertmchugh4639]

I agree. It breaks the frame.

[@robertolouth7468]

Love what you did, thank you!

[@peterward8308]

Today's digigraphers could fire off thousands of shots but never hit the mark like Bresson.

[@emmacarina73]

THE DECISIVE MOMENT, says it all....

[@Alex_science]

THE master ever.

[@PeterMBohm]

BRESSON !!!

[@vicowiz1]

I love the music tho...

[@HartponderJr]

Inspiring

[@robertograna486]

En mi opinión cuando se muestra la obra de un fotógrafo en una filmación, se han de presentar las fotografías completas, tal como el artista muestra su obra al espectador, si no creamos un nerviosismo constante esperando esperando que el plano se pare quieto de una vez para apreciar en su totalidad lo que se quiso transmitir.

[@maurosoyyo2228]

Hola me podrías recomendar vídeos de fotografía gracias!

[@olegdeniz6135]

12-я секунда.Классика "изготовки" для уличного фотографа!

[@martinjohnston4274]

Wonderful selection of HCB's photographs but the moving & zooming is distracting!

[@marcomorandi147]

meraviglia.

[@treborob]

Bresson, not Besson, correct please...

[@dilliboirubirosa9638]

robert mcknight She couldn’t be bothered, obviously. Or she doesn’t know better.

[@uboconverter]

decisive is the image cutout, it is unnecessarily animate the photos.

[@philipshucet9481]

In spite of the criticism, I believe you did a splendid job here. You used your own method of interpreting the work. I doubt that HCB would take issue with that. Hopefully your work here will inspire others to explore photography further.

[@williambarco7144]

Did anyone catch the young Truman Capote photo?

[@persjostrand4320]

Just show the photos as they are. Let the observer move his/her eyes instead.

[@Charles-mp3ey]

👍👍👍

[@zxq459]

Photography is not something that you learn or master instead you must have a feel for it or be naturally gifted.

[@ИВАНПЕТРОВ-к1х7к]

Великолепно.

[@gillesvallee1278]

Le diaporama utilise le recadrage et c'est dommage car on perd l'équilibre global de la photo

[@Frank-mm2yp]

Wonder if he ever asked any of his "candid" subjects: "may I take your picture?" Doubt it....

[@michaelwertzy9808]

A little less litigation "focus" was before "model releases"'. I've always had several with me, and had the subjects endorse them. When it comes to the "public arena', It's fair game. Papparazi can go to hell with their disgusting methods

[@AlejandroRamos-im4to]

@@michaelwertzy9808 what a stupid comment.

[@AlejandroRamos-im4to]

Of course he didn't, asking for permission is stupid. Asking for permission shows nothing but insecurity and fear.

[@marcoszanettibodziak737]

Sebastião Salgado is the best of all times!

[@satkartarskhalsa3379]

The photograph of Che Guevarra is the work of Rene Burri, not HCB.

[@bharadwajkamesh8939]

Thank you for this video. Might I suggest you stop animated your images in future videos. The eye doesn't follow Bresson's composition, but the direction in which you are animated. The photographs lose something very important with that.

[@durango-CODEBUILDER]

One of the most polite youtube crit comments I have ever seen.

[@farshimelt]

You can stop the movement, for as long as you like, at any time.

[@dukeiiigmail]

great point, the ken burns effect make it very hard to appreciate the composition bf switching to another image

Missing a r in Besson, is Cartier BRESSON What world are we living in?

[@jimshorts9708]

I found the video panning and zooming on the photographs too distracting to watch.

[@88yellowjacket]

A time before everyone had cameras in their pockets... No Instagram, Facebook, social media to publicize your work. Of course people act more naturally what's the worst that could happen.

[@tao3590]

Does anyone know what the music it is?

[@JaapV12]

Don't crop.

[@jkanclark]

I feel like photographic subjects would have been much more abundant back then. The world looks boring today by comparison.

[@philco6645]

Stop the panning, please . . . it's not only superfluous but it detracts from the beauty and impact of the images

[@farshimelt]

Stop the video at any point and look as long as you like.

[@hectorcan13]

What is the background music from? Quite beautiful. Sounds like John Barry. Out of Africa?

[@leemartin2978]

Loads of info in drop down description box

[@mirden1953]

It’s from the movie Somewhere In Time

[@classicalemotion]

Besson??? Cartier-Bresson was really a composer of the image. I don't understand why would be nice to see the camera moving through the image! Every single picture was meant to be complete, without stupid movement, and with stupid music as background

[@tylortayo-ilori6266]

classicalemotion you don’t need to be insulting with your comment. You could have just left your comment at mere suggestion. And if you had a better idea how to do it, you’d simply go and put your own video together and do it your own way. The world needs more compassion not insult. You have got to consider that whoever did this spent time and energy on it and that’s worth something.

[@farshimelt]

As I've said to others; You can stop the video any time and look as long as you like. You can turn off the sound. For every problem, there is a solution.

As animações estragam o vídeo. Uma pena.

[@mintai78]

Bresson not Besson.

[@alinluca3436]

Not enough sharpness for today standards :)). In the era when the pictures tells a story, a life, today we complain 100mega pixels are not enough for snapping toys and download on instagram

[@mfreeman313]

HCB once said "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept," but he mostly said it as a joke after shooting a picture of Helmut Newton at age 90 for an article on photographers over 80. Seems his hands weren't as steady as in years past, and they were joking about some of the results. But seriously he wasn't about screaming sharp results and that's a subject in itself today. People spend two month's mortgage and more on a brutally sharp lens and then cry that they can't get the softer, tenderer "film look." They turn the sharpness all the way down, they buy filters to soften the image, on and on. It's crazy.

[@Christerart]

This is a stupid video, full of animated images that seldom sho the whole image so you can look at it whole and not be distracted by the constant movement in, out or around.

[@derecwilsom4546]

so i am pretty sure he worked very hard to compose crop and print those and then you zoom around the image ruining the choices that he made. show the whole photo as he intended and then maybe zoom in or crop for details. And for the love of God spell his name correctly.

[@gvp999999]

All the scrolling and zooming completely ruins the impact of his pictures. Why do it?

[@farshimelt]

Stop scrolling.

[@yohoanemone597]

[@scottparis6355]

Had to stop watching. Please don't pan across the pictures. Show them the way he shot them.
