@benjaminelancaste: Leading lines 🛣 are one of my favorite composition tools for upgrading everyday scenes into a story. Look around, and you’ll start noticing them everywhere the more you train your eye. Railway tracks stretching into the distance, roads, rivers, architectural shadows, and even light beams. They act like an invisible finger pointing your viewer right where you want them to look. Three I often look for when composing with leading lines: 1. A clear destination. A line with no subject at the end feels incomplete. 2. Perspective. Getting low to the ground often makes the lines feel more prominent and dramatic. Shift your angle until the perspective naturally pulls you in, and keep the geometry clean and easy for the eye to follow. Simplicity beats chaos, always. 3. Patience. More than half of these shots are just from me standing awkwardly in places waiting for someone (the right subject) to walk into the frame without making it look like I’m stalking them. Sometimes it happens instantly, other times it takes 20 minutes and 917 ‘okay’ shots 😂. Try these out the next time you’re shooting! Vanilla cookie if you make it to the end, na ingine ya chocolate 🍪 if you tell me which slide hits best! #fyp #photography #theartofnoticing #photographer
