Abstract photography can be defined as capturing images in which the subject isn’t the most interesting element. Albert Renger-Patzsch and Aaron Siskind photographed the ordinary to reveal their beauty. Uta Barth reversed the typical use of the camera, shooting out of focus and Andreas Gursky photographs the repetition of elements. During this unit, you will investigate appropriate examples of abstract photography and respond in your own way.

-I think that “Abstract photography can be defined as capturing images in which the subject isn’t the most interesting element”, means that the photo doesn’t have one defining feature, but can be of multiple things, maybe even focused more on the background than the actual subject of the image.
