Default Converging Lines

This weeks assignment is leading or converging lines...
The blog has an excellent article on this... http://digital-photography-school.co...verging-lines/

My example is a weak one.. so get out there and do something better



EXIF data should still be intact if you wish to participate in the mini contest.

The image you submit should be taken between the 23th April and the 6th of May 2008.

Your post must include "Assignment: Converging Lines" to show your permission to count it for the contest.



Next weeks is "Wide Open" f1.4 - f3.5 whatever - just wide open!"

Martini on the Deck
Assignment : Converging Lines
Sitting on the deck, drinking a martini, pondering the converging lines assignment, and noticed this.
In this instance is is not distance that causes convergence but the optical properties of glass, gin, and vermouth,

Taken from the Carnival Facination Cruise Ship...one of the things I thought was so interesting about this shot was all the lines....I hope it falls in this catagory.

The picture (cruise ship) fits but not the date (22 Feb). See the first post for the eligible dates for entries.
