Composition - Line of Sight

• Line of sight is the direction our eye moves around an image. 
• It leads the eye towards a centre of interest. 
• A line of sight can have a sense of movement such as smooth, rhythmic or abrupt. 
• Line of sight links to cropping as this can lead the eye in and out of the frame. 
• To use line of sight to its full advantage, you should analyse the direction of your lines in your roughs. Is it confusing? Does it direct the eye where you want it to?

One thing I disagreed with about the handout was that it says you should never have a line of sight leaning towards a corner. However, this might create an interesting line of sight if you want to show something leaving the page. 

When trying to create line of sight in an image with a figure in it, consider the gaze of the person and the positioning of their arms. 

Things that move can also be simple things to introduce line of sight into, for example, plants, hair and clothing. 

This is the image I sent because of its line of sight. I don’t think its the best example of line of sight but I liked the subtle things that direct the eye towards the people in the basket. I don't think colour has been considered very well in this image because it seems as though the people should be the focus due to the lines of sight but the bright colours of the fish are quite distracting.
