The composition of the golden ratio or golden section is the arrangement of the photo where the point if interest alias the main subject is placed at the intersection of two horizontal lines having a ratio of 1: 1.6 or 38/62.
If you are confused with the above explanation, the picture below will be quite helpful to understand the description of the composition of golden ratio:
Notice the meeting point between the green and red diagonal lines. This point is the position called the golden ratio in the composition of photographs or paintings. If you observe, the composition of the famous rules of thirds is a simplification of the composition of the golden ratio.
The Golden ratio when derived is derived from the famous Fibonacci mathematician's rule (at some point you must have read about Fibonacci numbers in school), where he found the golden ratio is an arrangement found in nature: sunflowers, shellfish etc. Famous paintings such as Monalisa or The Last Supper using compositions and designers hitherto also utilize many golden ratios in their work.
If you use Lightroom 3 or Lightroom 4, when you crop a photo, there is a golden ratio that we can use to compose this composition.
Drawing photos with golden ratio composition gives a strong visual effect because it is believed to be a composition that is in harmony with nature and balance.
