"The German photographer Bernd Becher, who has died at the age of 75 from complications during heart surgery, was famous for the vast collection of images of industrial structures he created with his wife Hilla over a working partnership of nearly 50 years. These included mine winding towers, blast furnaces, gas tanks, grain elevators, water and cooling towers, and occasionally entire complexes of factory buildings." [Guardian obit.]
