So many diagonals in your shot, Paula – they are both the plot and the sub-plot. I love the continuation of the grassy diagonal on the left side of the road into the mountain’s diagonal, and then there are fences, the road itself and the break in the clouds. So many when you start looking.
You’ve tempted me into two posts in one day

That looks a lovely spot in Slovenia, Paula, and your shot definitely makes me want to drive along that road.
This week I went to the Botanic Gardens in Cambridge for the first time and adored them. Their glass houses were appealing structures full of gorgeous plants. And oh so many diagonal lines: https://travelwithintent.com/2016/06/12/diagonal-botanical/

Pingback: Leading lines… – TRAVEL WORDS
Another thoughtful challenge Paula. I was going to do a year long project looking at the different ways of photographing a subject so this is very dear to my heart. (I had to put off the project due to the house move and garden challenge I am running this year, but maybe in the future I will come back to it). Anyway I digress. I took a look at a recent set of images I took and was surprised to see how many of them I compose using leading lines – or diagonals. I hope that I have interpreted this week’s challenge correctly and that you enjoy following my lines 🙂

Your mountain example is excellent with both the S-shape curve of the road and the diagonal lines of the field boundary drawing the viewer towards the mountains.

Hello Paula! It’s been a long time, I had to get caught up a bit. I have more exhibition proposals and submissions to make, and a lot more networking to do but I’m taking this opportunity to jump in on this brief:
https://themofman.wordpress.com/2016/06/13/themofmans-answer-to-bw-sunday-diagonals/
I like your use of the sky as an angular element. All aesthetics cause me to look from the road to the upper right, and wonder what’s up on the nearest mountain.
