Henri Brisson’s Geometry of the Moment

Everyone talks about a decisive moment in photography, but here's what made Henri Brisson

truly different. Brisson never chased moments in photography. He waited for geometry to align to click

his images. Look at his images, before you see people, you see lines, you see shapes,

you see balance, you see stairs, curves, and shadows. Brisson believed

that photography was about recognition and not reaction. He framed first then waited for

life to walk into it. There was no cropping, there was no heavy editing,

there were no second chances in his images. That's why his images feel very effortless but they are very

mathematically precise. The moment feels spontaneous but the composition is already complete,
