   He captured decisive moments in life and his most famous shot was the photo in Paris, where a man is jumping into a puddle and Bresson captured it the moment as he was about to land into it. Also that shot represented Europe jumping into the unknown as the man representing Europe. Also he is the 'God Father' of decisive moment and changed the ways of photography.

    Because he captured the decisive moments in life and would get into a position where there wasn't life but then waited for life to come to him
