There were a couple of late submissions for FEET. They can be seen on the FEET post:


FEET

The Random Theme Generator has been generating and this morning it spit out the following theme:

LEADING LINES

The best definition of LEADING LINES is a photo with very strong lines in the composition that lead the viewers eyes through the photograph. A simple example would be almost any picture of railroad tracks or of a highway. A viewer will naturally follow lines through a photography, so it is a powerful compositional tool to put your subject at the end of lines.

Below are a couple of examples of LEADING LINES:

ACTORS

Des Moines Regatta - 2009

Remember, the lines don’t have to be straight. An “S” Curve in an image is a very powerful compositional tool. Of course, as always, no reason to be too literal with the theme.

  1. I keep looking at the birds from different angles – they’re just so very, very tiny. I can’t believe you were able to get that close without an angry mama bird in your face.

    I really like the examples you’re using for leading lines, too – I can’t wait to see the actual submission.

  2. The angry mama bird was definitely around. Just not quite in my face.

    I would say that there is a fair chance that my picture will be phoned in this week. Since I’m having the birthday barbecue thing on Saturday I’m pretty much stuck cleaning the house and yard almost all week. So I’m sure whatever I do won’t be very impressive.

    I should add that you and Jon would be more than welcome to show up on Saturday if you weren’t on bed rest.
