52 Week Project: Leading Lines

(The  52 Week Project. Themes are picked, pictures taken & posted, with links to the next photographer.
A great way to grow in skill as well as see how fellow dog photographers interpret the themes.)

This week’s theme: Leading lines. These are lines that draw the viewer in and around the scene presented. This can also lead the viewer out of the image or leave them feeling lost if they aren’t used correctly. In my “non-dog” photography I use leading lines often and try to incorporate leading lines with my dog photography, though it is a bit tougher. Especially since dogs are on a smaller scale than landscapes!

Bender was my model and did well (we had a couple of long distance stays!), though he wanted to be nosey as he typically is, so I worked with what he gave me. The results are different than I was looking for, but I’m pleased with them.
