Tyrone was 18 when this photo was taken. He is quiet and funny with a 1,000-watt smile. But in this photo all you see is the strength of a young man who has faced battles and believes in a world better than the one he was handed. I remember my breath caught in my chest when he turned his sign to face me. This is one of those moments Cartier-Bresson speaks of, the kind that trip the shutter themselves.
