Sometime you won&#8217;t find straight or connected lines in the image but I would advice you to <strong>keep an eye on the major elements in frame which might connect to each others and act as a passive patterns<\/strong>. Such patterns and lines stay hidden from our consciousness but if you pay close attention <strong>you will be rewarded with mysteriously deep and attention binding photographs.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Note<\/strong> <strong>:<\/strong> Did you noticed how the connectivity caused by pillars and the whole bridge managed to focus our eyes towards the bright spot in the center of this image.
