The Art of Foto-Grafie

What makes an image pleasing to the eye? Do all great photographs have a secret that can be learnt? To what extent is image making (be it fine art, furniture design, architectural spaces, fashion) similar? Is the 'Golden Mean'; the secret ratio discovered by Democritus and further propounded by Pythagoras, at the heart of symmetry in nature?

What is the connection between the cave painting of 'Lascaux' in France and the flowering of human self-awareness.

All will be revealed...Stay tuned...
