One of the keys to shooting Epic Landscape Photography is exalting the photograph's soul via golden ratio compositions, thusly wedding the photographic art to the divine proportion by which life itself was designed and exalted. The simple golden ratio PHI can exalt your art with the golden ratio harmonies in the form of golden rectangles, golden triangles, golden spirals, golden cuts, and more, all linked by the divine proportion!

Greetings flickr friends! I am working on several books on "epic photography," and I recently finished a related one titled: The Golden Number Ratio Principle: Why the Fibonacci Numbers Exalt Beauty and How to Create PHI Compositions in Art, Design, & Photography: An Artistic and Scientific Introduction to the Golden Mean . Message me on facebook for a free review copy!

The Golden Ratio also informs the design of the golden revolver on all the swimsuits and lingerie, as well as the 45surf logo!
The Golden Number Ratio Principle: Dr. E’s Golden Ratio Principle: The golden ratio exalts beauty because the number is a characteristic of the mathematically and physically most efficient manners of growth and distribution, on both evolutionary and purely physical levels. The golden ratio ensures that the proportions and structure of that which came before provide the proportions and structure of that which comes after. Robust, ordered growth is naturally associated with health and beauty, and thus we evolved to perceive the golden ratio harmonies as inherently beautiful, as we saw and felt their presence in all vital growth and life—in the salient features and proportions of humans and nature alike, from the distribution of our facial features and bones to the arrangements of petals, leaves, and sunflowers seeds. As ratios between Fibonacci Numbers offer the closest whole-number approximations to the golden ratio, and as seeds, cells, leaves, bones, and other physical entities appear in whole numbers, the Fibonacci Numbers oft appear in nature’s elements as “growth’s numbers.” From the dawn of time, humanity sought to salute their gods in art and temples exalting the same proportion by which all their vital sustenance and they themselves had been created—the golden ratio.
Ansel Adams is not only my favorite photographer, but he is one of the greatest photographers and artists of all time. And just like great artists including Michelangelo, Monet, Degas, Renoir, Leonardo da Vinci, Vermeer, Rembrandt, Botticelli, and Picasso, Ansel used the golden ratio and divine proportions in his epic art.
Not so long ago I discovered golden regions in many of his famous public domain his 8x10 aspect ratio photographs. I call these golden harmony regions "regions of golden action" or "ROGA"S, as seen here:

And too, I created some videos highlighting Ansel's use of the golden harmonies. Enjoy!

Okay, so I miscalculated on the first one. I thought that the head was three and a quarter inches, turns out it was really three inches. Oh, what a difference a quarter of an inch makes!
4.4×10^26 m - radius of the observable universe
1.5x10^11 m - 1AU, the radius of a sphere in which one molecule of homeopathically diluted substance might be expected to be found
7x10^8 m - radius of the Sun
7.1x10^7 m - radius of Jupiter
6.4x10^6 m - radius of the Earth
10^2 m - a good distance to run in 10s
1m - fenceposts and other human-sized things
1.7x10^-1 m - a good length for a kitchen knife
1x10^-3 m - a mustard seed
1x10^-4 m - thickness of a human hair
3.63x10^-6 m - pixel-pitch of the sensor that took this photo
4.4x10^-7 m - diameter of a Megavirus
1.62x10^-35 m - Planck length, shorter distances than which do not make sense even to string theorists
1.37×10^-35 N - the force a human's gravity exerts on a kilogram mass at the other side of the universe

This shows proportion because it looks like Ashley is holding skylar in her hands because she is standing farther away.
Grey phalaropes spend a large proportion of their lives out at sea, many miles from land. Birds that turn up in the UK - largely around the coast but occasionally at wetlands inland - have been blown off-course by bad weather and strong winds, around 200 birds per year are seen. Most often seen between October and January. (source: RSPB)

The ridiculously small lenses by the camera bugged me enough for me to produce a more balanced version.
Like how I occasionally get food from Taco Bell, I occasionally get figures that I know won't meet my expectations. I mean, that's pretty much every Mezco ever made, with issues ranging from Articulation and Proportion, to accuracy to source material.
I didn't grow up with Ultraman, nor have I actually watched any of it (I also passed when Tiga came to the West).But, when a figure looks like a guy in a crappy suit, and the real life version looks like a guy dressed in a crappy suit, well I get quite intrigued and just go for it. Plus, there's no real photo accurate sculpt to worry about.
Figure comes with some neat accessories, including the Brother's Cape, three energy attacks, a separate laser eye sculpt, the EDF VTOL aircraft, and some breakable buildings to simulate a Kaiju sized battle.
There are light up eyes and chest, just like the suit on TV, but as the batteries are TINY, I didn't want to stress myself and go through the trouble of installing batteries the size of a nipple on a Phicen body.
As mentioned before, my expectations were pretty low for this figure, yet at the same time they still managed to get trampled on. Mezco used a base male body for the figure, which in itself is better than the female one (which is why I don't get their figures).
The body has proportion issues (that's why all Mezco look like they're really stocky). Articulation is decent for the most part, even if range of motion is limited. Lacks head tilt and, more importantly, butterfly joints at the shoulders - due to the latter, I cannot actually cross the arms and do the trademark Ultraman arm pose. The stability of the figure isn't terrible and overall, I'd say the body is capable of better than a Legends, though I think Legends have butterfly joints now..
The suit is a nice thick patterned vinyl, which is definitely better than the body socks other figures wear, though the durability of this suit remains to be seen. So far, it has stood up to my testing. The wrist joints are embedded into the wrists and are also tied up inside the wrists of the suit, so I'm wondering about how the suit will take to the extra wear that is attaching hands and arranging them into position.
Paint is really silver... pretty hard to screw that up. Build wise, ti's actually pretty good. Suit is nicely made, and while I have concerns regarding the durability of the suit, at least the joints holding their position isn't a concern. The effects parts are nicely made, with no obviously rough finishes or other QC flaws to be concerned with.

sorry for shooting this at my house Mr. Ragno, it's not the best but my other photos make up for it :)
1) The principle in this photo is proportion since my cat looks like she's inside the glass but is actually too big to fit inside so it creates an illusion.
2) The aspect that is most visually striking is how my cat looks tiny and it throws off the viewer when they see this photo.
