You beat me to it Robert.
The converging/diverging lines lead the eye to or away from a subject.

Well regardless...my image DEFINITELY has leading lines, is sharp and appealing and the first vote I got was a 3.000....since then I have now risen to the dizzy heights of 4.7 from 8 votes.
So now....what was the challenge again?? Cause it certainly aint leading lines according to these voters.

| After voting on the first 100 entries my average score is down on my usual. I'm not ordinarily a DNMC troll (honest I'm not!), but even trying to apply a fairly liberal interpretation of the challenge definition there seems to be a whole bunch of images that seem to be off topic to me. Am I the only one thinking this way? |

Dropped down to 6.21 early this morning and now back up. I really like this shot so I'm happy that it's doing well. Not bad considering the few flaws I couldn't get rid of in basic editing. |

You beat me to it Robert.
The converging/diverging lines lead the eye to or away from a subject. |
I've seen entries where there is NO subject from which the lines lead or from which the lines pull away.
If we don't see a main subject (to or from the line(s)), should we feel guilty for deducting a point or two?

Why does it have to lead you to a subject, can't it just lead you into and/or through a photo? Leading to a specific subject is much too narrow a defintion.

| I really don't get the voting this time. This doesn't seem like such a confusing challenge description. After voting ends I'm going to put big red f**king arrows all over the picture following the three sets of line all pointing at the subject. I can only assume that is why the photo is sitting in the 4's. |
