Winner and Finalists of Leading Lines Photography Assignment - #42
Leading lines are a very powerful way to control where a viewer looks within your image. Man made lines like railroad tracks, natural lines like shorelines, and even "created" lines such as a line of birds flying can be leading lines. By using leading lines in conjunction with the Rule of Thirds, Centering, and other compositional rules we can further refine the path the viewer's eye takes when studying an image. This control of eye movement helps a photographer to control the impact of their photographs.

Once again our members came through with a fantastic array of leading lines images. From blatant to subtle, the motion of the eye within the frame was well controlled. Be sure to visit the forum to see some of the other amazing entries once you finish viewing our winner and finalist images here.

Congratulations to our winner of the Leading Lines Assignment #42 - KenJ44!
