For this picture i made my friend lay on the floor to make sure that the triangle created by the shadows and sunlight was leading towards her face.
To capture this image i made my friend stand in the middle of the stairs and tried to position the camera in a way that it looks like both the banisters are pointing directly at her.
There are leading lines in this picture because the footpath is leading towards the three people and the end of the fields from the right and left hand side are leading in towards the people as well.
Leading lines refers to a technique of composition where the viewer of your photos attention is drawn to lines that lead to the main subject of the image. A leading line paves an easy path for the eye to follow through different elements of a photo. Usually they start at the bottom of the frame and guide the eye upwards and inwards, from the foreground of the image to the background, typically leading toward the main subject. The easiest place to find a leading line is on a road. Roadways are inherently leading because they go somewhere, give us a feeling of motion, and the lines often point so far inwards that they reach a vanishing point – the place where two or more lines converge into theoretical infinity.When leading lines, such as roads, connect the foreground to the background of a scene, they help to create depth and dimensionality which draws the viewer into the image. Leading lines are all around us in cities and in nature.
When you’re setting up a shot, take a moment to examine the scene for its prominent lines. Clear your mind, relax your eyes, and notice where they are naturally drawn to.
