CREATIVE PHOTOGRAPHY TIP:
Find Lead-in Lines to improve the foreground

Image 1 - Trying to minimize the concrete has resulted in a centered shot		Image 2 - Using the lines in the concrete to lead into the lighthouse improves the shot		Image 3 - The curving forest path at the bottom leads our eye all the way through

Lead-in lines can help bring the eye into the photo and make your shots much more interesting by helping to fill the foreground (Image 1 & 2, above).

Lines are everywhere in the landscape, from walls to streams and from fences to paths (Image 3, above). Look out for them and make careful use of them to make your shots more interesting.

Lines do not even have to be real, they can be imagined ones, such as the top of a hedge or the pattern of a wave as it hits the shoreline.
