Single
vanishing point within the frame
While the
lines of the interior of the building on each side run in parallel,
from this view point the lines appear to converge to a single
central vanishing point. The strategy give the image a strong
sense of symmetry and stability |

| Here
we see the same interior with the vanishing point located off centre. |

In an image
where the vanishing point is in the centre there is a real sense
of infinity - the lines appear to project to a point in the
distance that we can not see, it gives sense of inertial and
rushing.

Single
vanishing point outside the frame
In
this strategy the lines project to a point out side the frame
- they give a sense that the row of buildings continue out side
the frame and on both sides. |

Double
vanishing point outside the frame
In this image
the converging lines project to a point outside the frame.

Double
vanishing point within the frame
In
this image there are two sets of converging lines which project
to two separate points inside the frame. |

The same rules apply to vertical perspective - as we move closer to
the building the angles become more acute -

Sometimes
we can frame a subject which has no reference to a vanishing point-
the resulting image appears to have a disjunctive flat perspective that
we read as a single flat surface.
