Vanishing Point

Weekly Challenge October 5-12


The winner of the Commercial Photography challenge was jengajoh. She issued this challenge and will be judging the entries.

A vanishing point is a point in a perspective drawing or photo to which parallel lines not parallel to the image plane appear to converge. Also a point in space or time at or beyond which something disappears or ceases to exist.

Good luck!

Be sure to visit the Weekly Challenge Rules & Guidelines for more information. This thread will be closed on October 12th...so get those photos in!


The Rules
  1. Photos must be posted to the thread in order to be considered for the challenge.
  2. Any photo submitted for a weekly challenge must be taken during the dates specified in the challenge thread and taken by you! Because not all EXIF data can be verified, we will use the honor system here.
  3. Challenges will be judged solely by the winner of the previous week. There will be no individual voting.
  4. Only one photo entry per member, for each challenge.

There will be no cash or prizes awarded for the Weekly Challenge, unless specifically noted by the site administrator. This is a member-run contest, and the purpose of the Weekly Challenge is to encourage member participation on the forums and to keep you taking pictures!

Any photo will be accepted for the challenge. Edited/straight out of the camera, it does not matter. You are left with complete freedom to do whatever genre of photography you wish to do, and your own interpretation of the challenge subject.

Somehow I just knew you were going to take a photo of railroad tracks.
:)

Had to go back on my roots for this one. My other choice was a gravel road between two corn fields, but the corn was harvested this week. The shot didn't look right to me without the corn, so I needed something quick and easy because the fall colors are getting really close here. We have a lot of road trips planned the next couple of days and I'm not sure what we're going to find. I have another idea with this shot, but the timing and light has to be right. This is looking West, so I have to take it early in the day, which is another reason I entered this one. I'm not going to have a lot of time to work on it.
