Riding through town by helenhall

Riding through town

Having hastily read some of the excellent material on the flashofred2017 challenge, I went looking today for leading lines. At first, surprisingly difficult - I realised just what a 2D photographer I am - chosing compositions that have little depth to them in the main.

It took my lunch time outing to find a suitable subject, and then three came all at once. The passage through by the market area of town seems well used by cyclists and I caught one coming the other way with a lovely shadow on the wall, but this is better for the lines. Ill post the other in my extras.
lines, curving lines, shadows, such much repetition going on, I really like what you have captured here.

A wonderful 'slice of life' shot with the bike and the sunshine and chairs :)

Wonderful lines, curves, and depth in this capture, Helen! Well spotted! :-)

Agreed, leading lines are hard to find. I usually find them by accident. Yes, many of your images are 2D, but just looking at your Jan 19 - 28 posts, I see effective use of depth ranging from inches to dozens of meters.

I do like what you've found -- the curve takes us into the scene, and all those lines and shadows make for an interesting scene.

nice lines and curves and the cyclist draws you right into the picture.

Great leading lines.

love those shadows - and all the different curves, walls and chairs and shadows and bike wheels ...
