Diagonal lines add interest to your photographs.  This forest is in an older burn area and the diagonal lines of the ridges create a dynamic image of the area.  

Four things to remember when you put diagonals into your image:

• Avoid starting and ending your lines in the corners of your image.
• Combine diagonals and straight lines for interest.
• Don't combine too many diagonal lines-this can cause your image to look messy.
• Look for patterns.

Forests are a great place to look for diagonal lines - fallen logs, rows of trees, grassy areas.  But you can also find them in a city/urban setting - street markings, buildings, etc.
