Street Photography

Street photography is a genre of photography that focuses on capturing the candid moments and everyday life of people in public spaces.

Henri Cartier-Bresson is often credited as being one of the pioneers of street photography, known for his candid and decisive moment approach.

The decisive moment is a term coined by Henri Cartier-Bresson to describe the ability to capture the perfect moment in street photography, where all the elements come together to create a powerful image.

Paris is often considered to be the birthplace of street photography, with many influential photographers, including Henri Cartier-Bresson, working in the city during the early 20th century.

A candid shot is a photograph that captures a fleeting moment or expression, often without the subject's knowledge or posing.

Garry Winogrand is known for his candid and often humorous street photographs of New York City, which captured the energy and diversity of the city.
