Any post about ‘Vanishing Points’ could also be (at times) called : Leading Lines; Perspective; Looking Up; or Looking Alongside.
In Petite-Fort-Phillippe on the North Coast of France, we strolled along the pier that disappeared into the horizon. The lines obviously lead straight out to the horizon (H).
Heading straight into the sun on a street in Copenhagen, Denmark. You can’t see the vanishing point here because you’re blinded by the sun.
Looking along the canal in the Pontcysylite Aqueduct in Wales.
A section of straight ‘Inca’ road in the empty lands of the Argentinean Andes.
Taking the Renfe train from Toledo to Madrid.
VPs when Looking Up (or Down).
Staircases are often fairly obvious as to vanishing points (VPs) whether they are going up or down; in this case stairs leading down to the First World War tunnels in the Somme 1916 Musée in Albert, France.
Up the red staircase at the Brussels Atomium in Belgium.
This note on perspective drawing shows a house-like object with three Vanishing Points labeled V1, V2 and the less obvious V3, which is the one that is up in the air somewhere. (H is Horizon, S is the sightline.)
The V3 diagram comes to life in these buildings in historic Troyes, France, the half-timbers providing visual lines all leading up to V3.
In this view of Hong Kong all the buildings appear to be tipping over into the centre because of Vanishing Point 3 (the one that is way up in the air somewhere.)
A view of the town hall in Brussels, Belgium. Vanishing Point 3 shows up best in really tall buildings.
Or really tall trees.
Or in the lines and masts of a really tall ship, this one in the Maritime Museum in Melaka, Malaysia.
More of Dan’s CFFC: Images with a vanishing point.

These are excellent photos for the challenge. I love the staircase and the tunnel, and that long road through the rolling hills.
It was interesting when I found my old perspective notes that date WAAAY back to high school, and I reacquainted myself with that elusive V3…
I’m glad you found these photos.
Great collection!
