“Photography is, for me, a spontaneous impulse coming from an ever attentive eye which captures the moment and its eternity.”

Henri Cartier Bresson

Simplified Meaning:

Taking a photograph is like acting on a sudden desire to grab a meaningful moment with your camera. It's something that comes naturally when you are always watching and noticing what's happening around you. Imagine seeing a friend laughing in a way that makes their whole face light up. If you quickly take a picture of it, you're not just capturing that split second, but you're also preserving the joy and emotion of that moment forever. This way, a simple photograph can hold on to that special memory long after the moment has passed. So, whenever you see something beautiful, funny, or important, be ready to snap a photo because you are not just keeping a picture but saving a piece of time that you can always look back on.
