Golden Spiral

Using the basis and theory of Geometry, the golden spiral is a logarithmic spiral that has a growth factor b and is related to the 'Golden Ratio, φ' The Golden Spiral gets wider, or further away from it's starting for every quarter turn that it takes.

The main theory of The Golden Spiral is that the spiral shows us where our eyes are automatically attracted when we first look an image and the part we find most aesthetically pleasing, and quite often the place we are attracted to straight away is the eyes, so therefore if the eyes look promising then the rest of the image has increased chance of impressing.
