Ellliott Erwitt

My latest fascination is with this famous french photographer following a visit to the Dunedin Public Library and the discovery of one of his books titled simply "Snaps".

He grew up and studied in America and quickly became a renowned advertising and documentary photographer. He is known for his black and white candid shots of ironic and absurd situations within everyday settings -- the master of the "indecisive moment".

You've got to check it out to understand. The guy's a genius.
