The points at which these lines intersect are called Vortexes. Used as a descriptive term relating to such scientific forms as tornadoes as well as the way the water goes down the hole in your bath, its function in this purpose is more symbolic than literal.
The energy of a vortex acts as an amplifier. Trees and surrounding areas have shown signs of distortion in their growing patterns, beginning to provide a physicality to the idea of this energy.
Scientific equipment cannot measure the electric or magnetic effects present in the vortexes which has raised a certain amount of scepticism in people who perhaps are adversed to the 'New Age' ideas this raises. I would ask that you try to move past any preconceptions you may have about what you do or do not believe and start to consider the idea of a connection to the earth we are living on. This type of energy has been called many different things to many different people - 'Life Force' is how I will choose to describe it.
The relation to this energy once you are within the comforting realms of the vortex, are said to be silencing. Allowing us the rare freedom to be closer to consciousness and perhaps a quietening of the mind, brings us back to a connection to the land and our ‘Life Force’ that was familiar of our older generations. The way our lives are lived had evolved in such a way that this element has sadly been forgotten as an access to perhaps a 'quieter' way of living.
So, if these energies cannot be measured then how would anyone who had not been there understand it? Energy is something that can manifest itself. We see the effects of invisible energies all the time - namely electricity. It is my belief that energy can be contained within a medium.
I have experienced just this in the form of a CD. Healing energy was contained within a guided meditation on the CD and there is no denying it's impact. It is sometimes like being stunned with a brick - no joke!
I am therefore interested in what might happen in the containment of this energy within photographs. Is it possible to connect with a photograph and not know exactly what it was you connected with.. could it be a connection the place? Something that you related with in the energy of that place? All is up for debate. If this can be explored then perhaps someone who was not there can take some form of experience from the photos.
In the way that orbs are documented in areas, I am interested in examining any residue that may show. I have gone to lengths to ensure that there is no possibility of any technical inabilities that might be confused with this.. so we shall see!
Living on this area of land intrigues me. There are communities that are built on these intersections and life here has been reported to be slightly different. With beliefs ranging from spirituality, to 'New Age', to UFO experiences, people bring to it what they will. It is my interest to document these communities. As the project grows, I wish to expand and photograph within the homes of people who live on Ley Lines.
As the Ley Lines travel over the world, research has shown me that these intersections are varied and in the masses. Places of historical and monumental interest lye on the lines, such as Stone Henge, the Bermuda triangle, Ayers Rock, and many many churches and temples. Alfred Watkins, original founder of the Ley Lines theory, used these points to prove his theory that Ley Lines existed.
This project writes itself, with every new avenue I research, new aspects open themselves to me. It is on-going and endless and terribly exciting.
The first place that I am travelling to is Sedona, Arizona, boasting 4 of these intersections and being well known for it’s vortexes and acceptance of this energy. In terms of beginning to explore this energy, I could not think of a more fitting place.
I will be blogging the days and experiences as an on-going journal.

These are some maps of the vortexes I have plotted the world over, just to give you an idea. As these points are not exact, I am working with estimations of grids plotted and co-ordinates of these given places to plot them.
All maps are referenced from Google Earth for purposes of explanation and not for reproduction.
