Ouch, the black and white one looks like he's trying to power-nail the other dude's arm onto the timber.


Looks like a power screw driver, not a air nailer lol.

Dunno, but now I know what a Strike-slip is. :)

Thanks, strikeslip


Oh, there's an idea, a strikeslip fault line leading to a subject of some kind! Too bad I live on a stable craton. :-D

Strike-slip faults... a challenge topic? :)

Check out the zig-zag of the r.r. lines. Those were created by a strike-slip fault.

I think that would win another ribbon if it could be entered. On the other hand, I can see the comments: But there's only one leading line... :)

This is a straightforward example of leading lines where there is a "payoff" at the end of the lines. LOL.

Here are a few examples I could find that examplify the concept:

I still believe that leading lines don't have to lead to anything, but can be the subject themselves. (I say "still" because that was my story during the first LL challenge, and I'm stickin' with it).

I agree despite that definition I googled & posted on page one of this thread. I figure "Leading Lines" are "Leading Lines", and can well be their own subject. There are some good examples already posted of just this in this thread. I've got your back, karmat!

I just voted all the Leading Lines entries. I disagree with you. They are called leading lines because they lead the eye in the picture. The photos I scored more highly, were the ones where they led to something interesting. The ones I scored lower led nowhere or to uninteresting places.

If the lines exist as a subject themselves, we could have omitted the adjective "leading."

Lets not fight the problem.
