Generally, though I love the epithet BB, I think perhaps I rely on photography that is not too dependent on decisive moments; I like things that have been around for a while, and aren't going anywhere soon!Lucyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09764296105901909328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37070024.post-42348235525363337132009-05-28T13:02:51.450+02:002009-05-28T13:02:51.450+02:00The Breton Bresson?The Breton Bresson?Roderick Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16828395545197001637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37070024.post-21189365764912951962009-05-28T08:34:41.231+02:002009-05-28T08:34:41.231+02:00What a wonderful place.

You have an inexhaustible talent for lighting (the perfect verb, I think) on great subjects. Or perhaps not. As one whose metaphorical eye is glaucous and red-rimmed, I ask myself whether these subjects are available to all of us and it's only those with the Cartier-Bresson gene who "see" them. I have the uncomfortable feeling I would have looked out on that yard and noticed only junk. So, we already have the Prague Polymath; we may we now add the Breton Metamorphoser.
