Yes, the Golden Spiral is very important for pleasing compositions but it's really only half of the story. Without balance the image will fail by being too weighty, unless the point is to pull the viewer into the imbalance. Balance in a composition, both perfect and skewed, is very important and an overly unbalanced image tends to fail more often than it succeeds. Snapping a well focused and exposed image is a technical milestone and certainly important to all photographers, pulling a viewer in and pushing them to an important conclusion is where the art begins.</blockquote>
