Spiral pics? Fibonacci?

June 7th, 2015
Help, I can't figure out what those pics are called, which makes it hard to find a video explaining how to make them.

Maybe it could be the next technique challenge, but I would like to try one on a pic I have now.

It's the composition thing. Not sure you can make them. Starts in the left and curls up and round.

You've spelt it right. Google it and see what you find. I've found articles.

there's a plug in you can get to use with PS, but it doesn't work with the cloud version... if you find an alternative, please post!

One of my absolute favorite shapes.... https://images.search.yahoo.com/yhs/search;_ylt=AwrTceEDrHRVLRcABDsnnIlQ;_ylu=X3oDMTByNWU4cGh1BGNvbG8DZ3ExBHBvcwMxBHZ0aWQDBHNlYwNzYw--?p=Fibonacci+Spiral&fr=yhs-mozilla-004&hspart=mozilla&hsimp=yhs-004 It is basically a rectangle of 1 to 1.618 where you draw an arc on successive squares of 1:1. It is also called a Golden Spiral, and there are many links on the web on how to draw it, or where to find it in nature. I used it at our front entry hardscape at our house...

We have to persuade Adobe to support PixelBender on Photoshop CC. They dropped it in CS6 actually. Perhaps a few more irate users could stir Adobe? Little chance...

Here's how the Droste recursion effect could be done in PB in CS5.

The Golden Spiral and its approximations (the Fibonacci is just one) have little to do with Droste Recursion per se. And I think Droste was the point of the original post? You see references in photography to golden proportions in composition "rules" like the rule of thirds. You can choose a grid in Photoshop to create a golden-type guide, the "Crop" tool and along the top options bar, look for the "grid" options. Obviously not a true "golden' spiral unless the original rectangle frame long/short ratio is the golden ratio 1.61803399... But I wouldn't sweat it. "Rule" of thirds is perfectly effective.

But yes, I wish PB was currently supported. There are many fun filters and effects, Droste is just one.

Natural droste effect is the easiest way to go !
