It's a nice shot, though I wish the horizon were squared up. However, it doesn't really speak to "leading lines" for me.

The lean to the right hurts. The oevrall greenish cast hurts a lot. Excessive foreground is adding nothing; it denatures the imapct of the main subject. The diagonal line is very powerful, but it's only marginally a leading line IMO. The post processing that gives a soft glow to the concrete is very nice.

A fascinating scene, but unfortunately (IMO) a deeply flawed rendering. It leans to the right badly, so some ccw rotation would be in order. There's a LOT of reticulation, pebbling of the surfaces. This is so extreme it looks as if you may have added it in with a texture filter, but it's possible this is extreme sharpening artifacts, I don't know. I'd like to see the original on this one after the challenge, if you care to show it to me.

Nice conversion, strong leading line. One would have wished for a bit more impact in the destination, as it were; in this shot the road is of more power than the mountains, which probably isn't ideal. Still and all, a strong entry.

Lines, yes, but "leading"? Not really. The lines ARE the subject, as it were, and they don't actually "take" us anywhere. The lighting seems rather pedestrian, also, and the pure black BG is adding nothing of interest for me.

Wowza! You may get hammered on softness, but I think this is absolutely wonderful. Certainly, it meets the challenge.

haha, this is a hoot! I'm not 100% sure this really, truly qualifies as "leading lines", but who am I to say? I like it!

Beautiful, muted rendering of the scene. I can almost taste the tranquility. It feels a little soft, even though I'm not a proponent of always-tack-sharp voting.

i SO wish the cone were sharp... This is nicely seen, and it's a good example of leading lines.
