Line Image Bank


I chose this photo because it fits in with my thought of railway lines from earlier in the project, I love the way the photographer has used the idea of leading lines in the composition of this photograph, the train tracks being in the middle of the line at the bottom make the tracks look like they are going much further into the distance.


I chose this photo because similarly to the first photo I love the composition, the leading lines have been used to pave an easy path for the eye to follow through the different elements of the photo. The leading lines of this dirt track create a sense of infinity similar to the first photo of the rail way tracks.


The photographer has shot  this photo from the angle that lets the leading lines trace the track round to the sunset which would've been the main focus of the shot. The composition of the shot looks almost panoramic as the track is used to lead round to the main subject.


Similarly to the first and second photos that I chose, this photographer  used their leading lines to create a sense of infinity. This is created and when the viewer looks at the photograph their eyes are led down the road and they are made to feel as if they will be travelling the road for all eternity. When leading lines like these, such as roads, connect the foreground to the background of a scene, they help to create depth which draws the viewer into the image.

I chose this photograph because I like the way the photographer has composed the photo to use the lines as leading lines for the whole photo. The use of leading lines in this way give the photo depth and distance and make the lines seem longer and extended. 


The lines of the escalator look as if they are going on forever, these are more sets of parallel lines similar to the road markings and the railway tracks. The leading lines create a sense of infinity  with the viewer of the photograph.
