Golden shape is a type of photographic composition by dividing the photo area either with virtual edges into negatives or with real lines. So that it looks like there is a contrast between the two fields, thus forming a single unit.

This technique divides the positive and negative fields in a balanced and appropriate manner, resulting in a well-composed photo. Meanwhile, the division between positive and negative is 50:50 or 30:50 according to individual taste.
