EP25 - On the Decisive Moment - An audio essay from B+W PHOTOGRAPHY MAG

This episode takes offers a new view of the relevance of the so-called 'decisive moment' to contemporary photography. Ever since Henri Cartier Bresson coined the term to mean that there is moment when all things come together to capture the essence of a particular situation photographers have been drawn, like moths to a naked bulb, to the beauty of the images that HCB printed as proof of his assertion. Documentary (or street) photography has come a long way since then and in this episode I seek to update the 'master' famous epithet, drawing us away from that light and on to others that shed more light on the time in which we live.
