The geometry of composition of Henri Cartier-Bresson and André Kertesz or the disturbing nudes of Helmut Newton?

Which kind of photography do you love more?, which one goes deeper into your soul and your thinking and your feelings?

I must confess that i love both: Cartier-Bresson (as his master Kertesz) see the beautiful balance in the natural lines of the outside world; Newton don´t see the world, he make us see his inside world.

Cartier-Bresson, so shy and so budhist; Newton so extroverted and narcissistic.

Recently i have had the oportunity to buy wonderful gelatin silver prints: one from Cartier-Bresson made in Mexico as a child runs down a street; the other is a Newton´s print of a female nude in stark contrast to the sweeping, seemingly artificial skyline of New York city. They are very inspiring i think.

:rolleyes::confused::eek::):p:D
