[|Google Drive Photos] hfowlerconner Converging Lines Reference Page Synopsis of "[|How To Use Converging Lines]" by Darren Rowse Converging lines add interest and variety to images and are a technique that draws the viewers to the shot. A classic example, although probably overdone, would be the photographs of of railroad tracks. The line leading on the photograph draws the eye in a certain direction, whether it be horizontal or vertical. To get converging lines, you have to to at least 4 things: experiment with your positioning, use a wide angled lense, position the 'convergence', and add interest to a point of convergence. When positioning a photo, an assortment of placements need to be tried, instead of having just a singular spot. A wide angled lense can also improve the photograph by having the most effective position to frame in. Rules, such as the Rule of Thirds, also need to be applied to have a good focal point, which is one of the most important aspects of an image. Once the technicalities are applied, adding something as simple as an extra subject, like a person or object, can add an interesting key factor can bring a little more strength to the shot if there isn't enough already.
