Cartier-Bresson’s decisive moment comes when ‘the picture in one glance says everything and says it in terms of design, rhythm, pattern – every element in strong relationship with all the others… Photography is a matter of visual geometry’. I recall him telling me ‘Order and organization are the educated heart of a picture.’

 

Margaret R. Weiss

No entertainment is

so cheap as reading,

nor any pleasure

so lasting.
