Part 7: Henri Cartier-Bresson, Behind the Gare Saint-Lazare, Paris

Part 8: Tony Ray-Jones, The English
Looking at Tony Ray-Jones' photos of the English is a little bit like looking at a foreign country for me, even though I'm English. It all just seems so foreign, when it shouldn't really. He took inspiration from the New York street photographers during the time he spent in the US, and upon his return to England he set about trying to capture the essence of being English. Unfortunately, he only spent five years documenting the English at leisure before he returned to the US, but he got some very unique photos.

The BBC has a small gallery of his photos here, number 3 is my favorite; here is a bigger gallery, with this one being my overall top tip.

Part 9: Alfred Stieglitz, Equivalents
