One of the world's most renowned photographers, Henri Cartier-Bresson, has died at 95. Born into a wealthy Paris textile dynasty, he early on decided on photography for his life's work. Among the many images in his long, illustrious career are portraits of Mahatma Gandhi and William Faulkner, as well as the candid street scenes of Paris he is best known for. He will be missed.
