My Henri Cartier-Bresson Moment in Singapore








In my days as an aspiring photographer, I loved the unposed, street shots of Henri Cartier-Bresson.  I wanted to capture the moment as it was, from spontaneous expressions and gestures, to fleeting light or shadows of an afternoon.  

So it was with the smiles of these delightful children.  So it was with the well-lit, spacious foyer of this art center in Singapore.  

It was March 28th 2008, and I was on layover in Singapore, between Dubai and Manila.  As I had done before - in Copenhagen, Zurich and Paris - I arranged to leave the airport and explore the city.
