    A very different line:
    The Line between West and East. (The old Iron Curtain)

    Being raised during the cold-war periode, I visited the former border near the Brocken many times but was never able to cross the border.
    Finally we could cross the border after the Iron Curtain came down
    We visited the Harz region again in October 1990 during the first days after Germany became one country again.
    Still many things that reminded of the old border were visible even after the fall in 1989
    We literally could go through the opened (iron) curtain and hiked to the Brocken Summit.

    Used Ilford HP5 and a Pentax P30 with some SMC Pentax A lenses back in those days
    Developing was done with Ilford Microphen in a darkroom at a local newspaper back in 1990 where my father used to work.

    I have got impression that 'leading lines' means lines, leading eye to something important. Unfortunately I have taken almost no such images, thereby concentrate just to 'lines' part :)

    Maybe here some lines lead to something though:
    SDIM9437.jpg

    Or here - we at least can imagine that they lead into some [better?] place:
    SDIM2760_1_1.JPG

    But those lines, they do not lead anywhere... and they are even not lines anymore.
