Description From Wikipedia : ''In mathematics and the arts, two quantities are in the golden ratio (φ) if the ratio of the sum of the quantities to the larger quantity is equal to the ratio of the larger quantity to the smaller one. The figure on the right illustrates the geometric relationship''(...) ''At least since the 20th century, many artists and architects have proportioned their works to approximate the golden ratio—especially in the form of the golden rectangle, in which the ratio of the longer side to the shorter is the golden ratio—believing this proportion to be aesthetically pleasing''

I don't really get it...but PHI is awesome nonetheless

Did you edit the color here to get that lovely complimentary orange and blue color scheme? I love that you can see the curve of the earth in this - beautiful work.

I simply tweaked the temperature to colder colors
and it isn't the earth's horizon curve but simply the result from stitching 3 pictures together, I wasn't that high up
