Henri Cartier-Bresson dies

Henri Cartier-Bresson died on Tuesday, August 3, 2004. All PJs have studied his work. He founded Magnum photo agency. He coined the term "the decisive moment" as it applies to PJ. He became a painter for the last 25 of his 95 years, but he will always be considered the "father of photojournalism" to many.

Magnum has posted a retrospective of his work here.
