Come join our "Inspiration to Image" Render Challenge and explore the various aspects of composing a scene. This thread is for chatting about the challenge, and for posting your WIP renders. You can post your images here, before you finalize your render to show us how you are doing, or to ask for guidance if you get stumped on how to accomplish something.

Here are some educational links to info about the Golden and Fibonacci Ratios to get you started:

No artist information will be shown in the private media album, so please refrain from adding any copyright information that you may usually add to your renders.

I was just looking at those sites about the golden ration. Interesting! There's a show called Faces narrated by John Cleese and they go into it quite a bit. W0rking on my first entry now.

Back in the days of DS 3, Dreamlight had an add-on for whatever camera you wanted to use, that gave you options for the Golden Ratio, and the Golden Spiral. I don't know if that add-on works with the newer versions of DS, as I don't think it was ever updated. I used to use it all the time when I was using my DS 3A, before I got back into using Poser. In fact, I wish we had such an option for Poser.

ok...i found this...perhaps can be handy...i still don´t tried it
Golden Rules Camera Prop v1.5 - DAZ Studio - ShareCG
Ohhhh, I forgot Jader had done that. If I'm not mistaken he updated the older version I used to use in my DS3A so it could be used in DS4. I don't have DS4.5, so I can't try it out to see, but it certainly looks like it could be the same as what I'm used to using.

Thank you for posting the link mininessie. :)

Anything to do with numbers sets my head spinning, sorry.
