Our topic this month is “The Decisive Moment” in photography. We will discuss the meaning of this concept and how to capture it.
Photographers have the ability to record a fleeting moment in time. With the right light, good composition, an interesting subject and perfect timing, a photograph can be filled with unique emotion. The French photographer Henri Cartier-Bresson is credited with originating the phrase “the decisive moment” to describe the process of photographing these situations.
For our June program, we will watch and discuss a video by National Geographic photographer Joel Sartore offering ideas for practicing and achieving “decisive moment” photographs.
