Implied lines are only imagined lines which are used with some subtlety to direct the viewer's attention.
a) Eye-lines: If the person in the photograph is looking at something, our eyes naturally follow that direction.
b) the extension of visible movement: the eye tends to move ahead
c) a row of points: the eye also tends to move ahead
d) the extension of a line, or lines that seem to point in a cerain direction
First part:
The above 2 images show the extension of visible movement.
the first one, the bull is likely to go right hand side of the matadore, the eye has led ahead.
the second one, the horses are likely to left hand side of the cowboy while he's moving forward to stop them (?)
Second part:
1)Tube running
The tube is moving forward, the eye is moving ahead.
2) Bird running
Demoiselle Crane was running in curve. The eye is following its movement.
3) Tennis player serving
The tennis player is serving a ball. The eye is following the movement of her arm.
Third part:
Planning to take two photographs with implied lines isn't easy.
a) and eye-line
It's easy to use my husband as an object. I can either have him
- looking directly at camera which is the always the strongest attractant
- looking at something in the frame which will cause the eye to follow what he's looking at
- looking at something outside of the frame which will create some doubt in the viewer's mind of what he's looking at
b) the extension of a line, or lines that point I think lines that point would be something that I would look into it and it would lead me to the object. I planned to take a photo of path, street or fence or something that it leads the eye into it.
Then I found a wooden path that leads the way into or outof the carousel
