Albert Renger-Patzsch

Albert Renger-Patzsch was a German photographer born in 1897, he first started make his photographs by the age of twelve. In the  first world war Albert Renger-Patzsch was a solider fighting for Germany. After his time doing military he then went to study chemistry  at Dresden Technical College. Later on he

associated with the new objectivity, a book which explores photographs in their natural forms, industrial subjects or mass produced objects which are then clarified by his scientific knowledge.


This is one of his example of photography, I like this image as it is abstract as it is a close up of a dandelion and it is printed in black and white which I think is very effective. In this image there is still a lot of detail which I liked also he has managed to have bits of the picture blurred out and the other bits in focus I think that this is really effective as It show how the perspective is changed when one changes your mind.
