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!
www.facebook.com/goldennumberratio/
The Golden Ratio informs a lot of my art and photographic composition. The Golden Ratio also informs the design of the golden revolver on all the swimsuits and lingerie, as well as the 45surf logo! Not so long ago, I came up with the Golden Ratio Principle which describes why The Golden Ratio is so beautiful.
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.

All art is but imitation of nature.-- Seneca (Letters from a Stoic - Letter LXV: On the First Cause)
The universe itself is God and the universal outpouring of its soul. --Chrysippus (Quoted by Cicero in De Natura Deorum)
Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness
Close bosom-friend of the maturing sun
Conspiring with him how to load and bless
With fruit the vines that round the thatch-eves run;
To bend with apples the moss'd cottage-trees,
And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core;
To swell the gourd, and plump the hazel shells
With a sweet kernel; to set budding more,
And still more, later flowers for the bees,
Until they think warm days will never cease,
For Summer has o'er-brimm'd their clammy cells. --To Autumn. by John Keats

Velimir Khlebnikov: Fates of Nations: The New Theory of War. Time, Dimension of the World, Battles at Sea Occur Every 317 Years or Multiples Thereof, Namely 317 x 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 . . . . . . . .
Anselm Kiefer, (2011-14)
Anselm Kiefer often dedicates his works to intriguing figures of the past, be they poets or philosophers. This piece is one of a number of works emerging from Kiefer’s ongoing exploration of the Russian Futurist avant-garde writer, theorist and absurdist Velimir Khlebnikov (1885-1922).
After years of study, Khlebnikov concluded that a major sea battle took place every 317 years, or multiples thereof. Kiefer celebrates this heroic and ludicrous activity with a work that is both monument and anti-monument. Measuring almost 17 metres in total and consisting of two large glass vitrines, Kiefer creates a transparent, reflective sea-scape in three dimensions that calls to mind the Romantic sublime of painters from JMW Turner to Caspar David Friedrich. Kiefer uses the frames of the vitrines to stage a mysterious drama, in which viewers, seeing each other and their own reflections, become participants.

Las Ruinas de Tulum. Tulum Ruins. Mexico. Oct/2016
Tulum archaeological site is relatively compact compared with many other Maya sites in the vicinity, and is one of the best-preserved coastal Maya sites. Its proximity to the modern tourism developments along the Mexican Caribbean coastline and its short distance from Cancún and the surrounding "Riviera Maya" has made it a popular Maya tourist site in the Yucatan.
It was the site of a Mayan port which was supported by up to 1000 residents before the arrival of the Spanish. The ruin's tropical beach backdrop is the main attraction of this picturesque, much-visited small ruin on the shore of the Caribbean Sea
Each Mayan city had a specific purpose, and Tulum was no exception. It was a seaport, trading mainly in turquoise and jade.
As well as being the only Mayan city built on a coast, Tulum was one of the few protected by a wall.
Made of limestone, the 784-metre wall encloses the site on three sides, is seven metres thick, and varies between three and five metres in height. No doubt this fortification helped preserve the seaport.
Like the questions which surround the decline of the Mayan world, there are several theories as to why a wall surrounds Tulum. One has a Mayan population of 600 on the inside, protected from invaders. Another suggests only priests and nobility were housed within the walls, while peasants were kept on the outside.
After entering the ruins through one of five doorways in the wall, visitors are greeted by a field of gently-rolling hills. Black and grey stone outcroppings, which were once buildings, dot the sun-baked landscape.

A península mexicana de Yucatan, onde ficam as cidades de Cancun e Playa del Carmen, é uma região que foi habitada séculos atrás pela civilização maia. As antigas cidades ocupadas por este povo agora são ruínas preservadas e tornaram-se atrações turísticas muito visitadas. Um dos sítios arqueológicos mais importantes é o de Tulum, a cidade murada que se encontra de frente para o mar do caribe mexicano.
Esta cidade era designada pelos maias pelo nome de Zamá, que significa cidade da aurora. Tulum é também uma palavra maia para barreira ou parede, o que se entende facilmente pois a cidade encontra-se rodeada de espessa muralha protectora.
O primeiro a identificar a cidade foi Juan Díaz, que em 1518 fazia parte da expedição de Juan de Grijalva. A sua descrição de Tulum é a de uma cidade rica e magnífica, à imagem de Sevilha na Espanha. No entanto, o primeiro estudo detalhado do sítio deveu-se aos famosos exploradores John Lloyd Stephens e Frederick Catherwood, que publicaram em 1843 o livro Incidents of Travel in Yucatan.
Actualmente, milhares de turistas visitam as ruínas de Tulum diariamente, sobretudo em excursões organizadas. Tulum é o terceiro sítio arqueológico do México mais visitado atrás de Teotihuacan e Chichén Itzá e à frente de Monte Albán.

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, thusly providing symmetry over not only space but time, and exalting life’s foundational dynamic symmetry. Robust, ordered, symmetric 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 the arrangement of nature’s discrete 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 they and all their vital sustenance, as well as all the flowers and nature’s epic beauty, had been created—the golden ratio.

Light Time Dimension Theory's dx4/dt=ic graces all the clothes, swimsuits, and lingerie!
Proof of Light Time Dimension Theory's principle of a fourth expanding dimension:
Proof of ltd’s principle:
1. The velocity of every object through
Spacetime is c.
2. The velocity of light through the
Three spatial dimensions is always c.
3. If light had any velocity through x4,
Light’s total velocity would not be c.
4. Ergo light remains stationary in x4.
5. Thus light tracks and traces the
Movement and character of x4.
6. As light is a spherically-symmetric,
Probabilistic wavefront expanding
At c, x4 expands at the rate of c in a
Spherically-symmetric manner,
Distributing nonlocality.

Cognitive theory (psychology) is the study of how the brain processes data in the formation of beliefs and opinions and hence behavior based on those beliefs and opinions. Examples are such things as voting, financial decisions and social beliefs. Cognitive theory explains how we come to have our opinions and beliefs and why they differ among individuals. “Do not drink the Kool-Aid” , i.e., doing your own research and generally being a bit skeptical of conventional wisdom is the greatest way to combat its influence. (Look it up👌)
As a driver needs a license, gained through accredited theoretical knowledge of the road rules and practical demonstration of that theory, human intelligence also requires qualifications to get us, the nonmaterial particle, safely and surely to our ultimate destination.
In yoga wisdom the body is compared to a vehicle. The mind is likened to the steering wheel, and the atma, or essential self, to the passenger. Intelligence, the final component in the picture, corresponds to the driver. What is the purpose of the vehicle? To get us, the passenger, to enlightenment, the uniquely human destination.
But if our driver has no knowledge of that destination and simply wants to joy ride, we waste valuable time and energy chasing the same things other species get without such hard work. This is a tragedy according to yoga wisdom, because only in the human vehicle can our driver learn the road rules, the subtle laws of nature, and guide us properly. Rather than living in mountains and jungles, Bhakti Yogis are dedicated to sharing that knowledge, the greatest human necessity.

"... peut-être est-ce dans l'étrange miroir qui réfléchit, mais aussi déplace et déforme une mimesis dans l'autre, comme si elle avait pour destin de se mimer, de se masquer elle-même, que se loge l'histoire de la littérature comme la totalité de son interprétation.

Church of St Michael & St Mary, Melbourne Derbyshire is a large cruciform Norman building to the south of the village, now surrounded by the stables and servant’s quarters of Melbourne Hall.
1086 Domesday Survey recorded a church here , but this was replaced in 12c by the present building.
Why was such a splendid church built here? . It was a royal manor in the reign of Henry l - one theory is that the manor was given to Aethelwulf 1st Bishop of Carlisle in 1133 and used as a place of safety after the Scots captured Carlisle in 1136 and he then built himself a church worthy of his status, this has been discounted as the bishop did not leave Carlisle. The second, which seems to be the more likely is that it was built by Henry I as a royal church and that the the west gallery was a 'royal pew' www.flickr.com/gp/52219527@N00/HkBT5u and the upper clerestory walk way and chancel was for the King's use. Therefore this church was already standing (substantially as we see it today) by the time Adelulf received it
The church has remained relatively untouched over the centuries apart from a new wooden roof in the 1630s when the square central tower was also heightened to hold the bells, and in the mid 19c restoration when sadly wall plaster and medieval paintings were stripped from the walls leaving the bare stonework (only one small fragment survives www.flickr.com/gp/52219527@N00/8z7Yeq ) . The Victorians also added pointed roofs to the west towers, but these were removed in 1955.
There are two lower towers at the west end, which give the church a fortified appearance. Originally there were three small apses at the east end but these were replaced by a rectangular chancel. The outlines of the original roofs can still be seen on the outer walls.
In the 15c square windows were placed in the transepts and nave, Norman round topped windows surviving in the rest of the church.
The nave has massive round pillars with carved capitals, supporting round arches with dog toothed carving. Above the central tower crossing where the bell ropes hang down, there are 3 large round topped arches with a 1937 wooden carving of Christ crucified with the Virgin Mary and St John.
The transept and chancel have round arches with elaborately carved capitals. www.flickr.com/gp/52219527@N00/683943 One described as the ‘Melbourne Cat’ is a leopard like creature with a grin. On the opposite wall is a man pulling with all his might at the tail of a dog. www.flickr.com/gp/52219527@N00/09DP67 There is also a sheela-na-gig, a pagan fertility symbol, with leaves coming out of her mouth.
The first bells to be mentioned are the 'iiij bells in the steple with a sanctus bell' in 1542. By 1732 there were 4 bells inscribed: "God sasve the church 1610" (with founders mark of Henry Oldfield); "I sweetly tollng men do call to taste of meats that feed the soul 1632" by George Oldfield; "William Revitt and Henry Muggleston church wardens 1614"; "JohnCooper, Jo Fisher; DW & J Hedderley made me 1732" During a general restoration of the tower in 1882 these bells were recast by Taylors of Loughborough and 2 new bells were added. As a memorial of Queen Victoria's Silver Jubilee, the octave was completed in 1887. They were rehung in 1897 and 1936. In 1995 a new bell frame was fitted with more bells by Eijsbouts of Astens in Holland were added making 12 bells in total.
Kept hidden in the south transept, now the cluttered vestry are memorials to the 17c Hardinge family www.flickr.com/gp/52219527@N00/N7t9kU www.flickr.com/gp/52219527@N00/47h11z www.flickr.com/gp/52219527@N00/Scnw2J and 14c knight of the Melbournes www.flickr.com/gp/52219527@N00/0zb2tR

Hold onto your lunch and see the sparks fly Large On Black
I've seen a few images produced using this kind of ride/theme, so I wanted to produce my own slightly chaotic take on it. I think the result all subconsciously stems from the fact that I actually hate rides like this; which was reasonably well mannered for much of the time, but then would went entirely berserk for about 20 seconds at the end! I felt slightly nauseous just watching it for a few minutes! : 7
