Henri Cartier-Bresson (1908-2004)

Visited the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art last week. The Henri Cartier -Bresson retrospective "The Modern Century" was about to close and I really didn't want to miss it. There were hundreds of photographs. Some were well known and others completely new to me. The vintage silver prints were beautiful to look at. Whoever was printing his work in the 1960's- my hat's off to you- beautiful prints. The SFMOMA crowd made for some good people watching too. I'm sure Cartier-Bresson would have snapped a few frames.
