Leading Lines & Composition Hunt
What is this?
Composition = how you arrange everything in your photo
Leading lines = lines in a photo that guide your eye toward a subject
(like arrows pointing where to look)
Think:
Leading lines teach you to organize the whole image.
Ideas:
Understand how composition guides the viewer’s eye
Identify and use leading lines in outdoor environments
Practice framing subjects using basic composition techniques
Create more visually engaging and intentional photographs
Big Idea:
Good composition helps your photo feel organized, not random.
What to Look For Around School?
Sidewalks or walking paths
Roads or painted lines
Fences or railings
Stairs
Hallway lines (if partially outdoors)
Shadows that create lines
Edges of buildings
Bleachers or benches
Shooting Tips:
Place your subject at the end of the lines
Shoot from low angles to make lines stronger
Look for lines that go into the distance (depth)
Use symmetry when possible
Try rule of thirds (don’t always center your subject)
