Synopsis- Darren Rowse is the author of this article. He talks about how converging lines add interest to the image and draw the viewer's eye into that image. Railroad tracks are a great example of converging lines as he states in the article. This is because if the photographer stands in the middle of the track when there is no train coming, the farther back the tracks go, the closer together they get even though they don't actually get closer together. The picture just makes it look like each rail is converging to the other. He also included a picture of a road going downhill. The road drags the viewers eye into the distance. He states four tips regarding converging lines. Tip one is to experiment with positioning, as in where you stand whether you stand in the middle of the railroad tracks or off to the side to let the lines go diagonally through your frame. Tip two is wide angle lenses. These lenses help with perception of how far apart the lines are. Tip three is positioning the "convergence". This draws the eye into the shot to where they converge. This is also known as the focal point. Tip four suggests adding interest at the point of convergence. This makes the image interesting without adding any extra information.
