What is it?
Golden triangles...
Why do we use this rule?
Both golden triangles and spirals lead viewers to the main focal points of a photograph.
How do we use this rule?
For golden triangles...
Golden triangles...
- 3 triangles with corresponding shapes inside each of these 3 triangles.
- A spiral that leads the eye to the center or main focus of the photograph.
- Each spiral is created from a series of squares using Fibonacci’s numbers, with the length of each square being a Fibonacci number.
- A series of diagonal points on each square will then create the path that the spiral follows.
Why do we use this rule?
Both golden triangles and spirals lead viewers to the main focal points of a photograph.
How do we use this rule?
For golden triangles...
- Divide your photo diagonally from corner to corner.
- Draw a line from one of the other corners until it meets the first line at a 90 degree angle.
- Place your photograph's elements so that they fall within the resulting triangles.
- Draw a spiral that leads to the center of your photo or center of a particular object in that photo.
