In the picture
- The horizontal boundary between sky and distant ground: it sets eye level.
- A road edge that angles inward toward the distance: parallel edges appear to meet.
- The point where the road edges meet: the spot where receding parallel lines seem to converge.
- A tree in a repeating row: nearer trees are taller, farther trees are shorter.
Examples
- A road lined with lampposts that seem to shrink toward the horizon.
- Train tracks that appear to meet in the distance.
Key takeaways
- Lines that recede toward the distance appear to meet at a single point.
