These are examples of Rodchenko's phototography, which is the area of his work I think is the most successful.
These are, 'Fire Escape on the house in Myasnitskaya Street' 1925, 'Pioneer' 1930 and 'House in Myasnitskaya Street' 1927. All these photos show how Rodchenko used extreme angles to capture his subjects, these being taking from below looking up at them. This creates really dynamic photos and changes how you perceive the subject, taking a fresh look on them.
The second photos are the most interesting, as the extreme angles takes away some of the context of the situations Rodchenko is photographing them in and creates a more ambiguous feeling. Allowing the viewer to figure out the context themselves, engaging them within the photo.
