Leading lines:
A leading line is any line that creates a natural path down the picture such as standing in the middle of a road and taking a picture that goes straight out in front of you.

Repetition/Patterns:
Repetition is when a size, shape, or colour is shown several times over. It can be close up or far away. For example you could take a close up of someones finger tip to see the patterns in their fingerprint or you could take a distance shot of the side of a building to see the pattern that the evenly spaced windows create.
