Henri-Cartier Bresson

I chose this photo because my eye got caught by the trees as soon as I cam across this photo. While the only subject in the photo are trees
I can't stop looking into the trail/road which leads my eyes to the outer shot of the line of trees. I look at this photo as the trail disappears after going in,
but the trail picks back up from the outside. Also I like how the photographer used the rule of thirds in positioning the tree more on the left side.

If you hadn't noticed I chose photos from two completely separate backgrounds. When I saw this photo I noticed that in this city setting that there was only this man and a cat. I am looking at this photo and wondering where are the other people? Is this his cat, or a stray cat? I like how the photographer shot the photo to make it look as if it dark in the front and lighter as it moves back. I think it shows great contrast, especially adding a silhouette(man and cat) as the subject.
