The Golden Section

The Golden Section(Phi) is the ratio 1:1.618. This ratio is understood to be the most favoured ratio by the human, especially in paintings and photographs. The ratio looks like this:


'Leonardo Da Vinci' was known to use this ratio in all of his paintings. We can see how he has used it extensively in 'The Last Supper'.


The Golden section seems to be what makes images interesting to the eye, It can be seen in near enough everything, in the length and ratio of our arms, in our faces, and in our bodies.
