The 39th Scavenger Hunt had an overarching theme, Rose, and 10 other words to associate to it. I went for a very literal interpretation of that, got myself a rose bouquet (on discount because they were starting to fade quite a bit) and managed the whole Hunt in one (long) afternoon.
This was my entry for the word “Golden Ratio”. I went for the “spiral” interpretation of the word, and it was mostly a matter of cropping the image in the “right” way so that the golden spiral would appear, somewhere, somehow. I also learnt things about my tools grids – there ARE guides for golden ratio and golden spiral! that was very useful.
This picture is also the reason why I went for a B&W processing on “Fill the Frame“, so that two fairly similar pictures would still have a different feel!
The original was less golden-spiraley, but I knew I could make it work on the crop.
