Fibonacci – The Graceful Image http://thegracefulimage.com Photography by Zev Steinhardt Wed, 01 Jan 2020 20:52:16 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.9.16 Golden Ratio http://thegracefulimage.com/golden-ratio/ http://thegracefulimage.com/golden-ratio/#comments Sun, 29 Jun 2014 18:46:53 +0000 http://thegracefulimage.com/?p=86 The Golden Ratio was the theme for this week’s Fifty Two Frames album.  I knew from the start that I was going to end up using flowers for this shot.  I took some shots of a sunflower and a daisy before finally deciding on the former. It took me a while to set up the shot according to the Golden Ratio and, to be perfectly honest, I’m *still* not sure that I really got it.  Nonetheless, between the framing of the shot and the fact that sunflowers follow the Fibonacci sequence (which is the basis of the Golden Ratio), I figured I was safe about meeting the requirements of the theme.

Fifty Two Frames, Week 26, 2014: The Golden Ratio. Canon 7D, 100mm macro lens, f/5, 1/6 second, ISO 100

 

Apparently, this shot went over very well, as it was chosen as #3 for the album.  This is my third #3 finish (aside from the one #2 finish).  Now to try (dare I dream?) for the cover shot.

As always, comments, critiques and criticisms are welcome, encouraged and appreciated.
