The "Decisive Moment" or Sunny Marsh Mornings
 The view with my hand held camera and long lens, mostly obscurred by foliage.    The view - no longer bothered by foliage - from my flying camera with a telephoto lens. |
The decisive moment is a property of vantage point and framing (and of course timing), and not about the quintessence of the external event. His point is that in the swirl of humanity and nature, all around us, there are occasional fleeting moments where moving objects align naturally in the frame. He indeed sees geometry in the harmonic patterns, but it’s a complex geometry that makes it work, and not the application of a geometry. This distinction is important to him, and also where he is most misunderstood.
