What is the purpose of leading lines in photography? Leading lines are basically exactly what they sound like. They are lines that lead the viewer’s eye throughout the image. This can help the viewer see the subject that the photographer is trying to get them to see.
This image is using the line on the side of the road to lead the viewer’s eye into the sunset.
The parallel lines on the ground are leading to the school doors
The log in this image is leading up to the house on the hill.
The railing is leading the viewer’s eye to the person standing at the top
The middle yellow lines serve as a good leading line into the sunset
I chose this picture as my featured image because it is obvious what the leading lines in this image are and what subject they are leading to. I like how it looks like you could just follow the leading lines into the building.
