National Botanical Garden - Rose Arch

The model moves close to the water surface, and the photographer shoots from overhead with the camera positioned slightly above the model's head, at a straight-down angle, emphasizing the layers of lotus leaves and water. Use the rule of thirds in composition, placing the model in the lower third of the frame and the lotus flowers in the upper middle part of the image to create visual guidance. It is recommended to use a wide-angle lens to maintain a natural perspective and appropriate framing.

National Botanical Garden - Taking a Photo with Lotus Leaves

The photographer stands on one side of the stairs, slightly tilting the camera upward to capture the flowering tree. The foreground is filled with blooming pink flowers, using a wide-angle lens to include more of the flowering tree, stairs, and background elements. This enhances the sense of space and highlights the lushness of the flowering tree.

National Botanical Garden - Sweet Snowball Staircase

The photographer uses a slightly upward angle to highlight the metal framework of the glass roof. The rule of thirds is applied, with the model standing at the one-third mark on the left side of the frame, directing the viewer’s focus to the model. The composition includes the glass walls on both sides, green plants, and the reflective floor, adding depth to the space.

Pose: The model should stand sideways naturally, maintaining a static and elegant posture.

National Botanical Garden South Garden - Greenhouse Glasshouse Corridor

The photographer stands in a slightly forward position in front of the sea of flowers, shooting from a slightly downward angle. The foreground focuses on pink flowers, the middle ground captures yellow and purple flower fields, and the background retains the trees and green grass. The composition uses the rule of thirds horizontally, allowing different colored flower fields to be arranged along the thirds lines, enhancing the depth and color contrast of the image. The lower part of the frame shows the sunlit flower sea, while the upper part retains the trees.

Travel Tips:
① Ticket Prices: If you only buy a ticket for the North Garden, it’s 5 RMB per person. For both the North and South Gardens, it’s 10 RMB per person.

National Botanical Garden - Pink Daisy Blossom Sea

The photographer stands at a slight angle in front of the subject and shoots at eye level. Using a central composition, the subject is placed in the center of the frame to highlight their prominence. It is recommended to use a medium focal length lens, as it offers a moderate field of view and good control over depth of field, avoiding the distortion that can occur with wide-angle lenses.

Styling tip: Pair with high-saturation clothing to enhance contrast.

Beijing National Botanical Garden - Taking a photo with cacti

The model stands on a path in the plum blossom grove, and the photographer shoots from a slightly higher angle at an angle, choosing the model's side profile to create a soft and gentle atmosphere. Using the rule of thirds, place the model on the right side of the frame. The plum blossom branches naturally form a foreground frame, adding depth. Use an 85mm lens on a camera or a 3x zoom on a phone to compress the background and highlight the subject and floral details.

Additional suggestion: At the main entrance (National Botanical Garden Station), there are sightseeing cars that can take you directly to Wofosi Temple.

National Botanical Garden - Under the Mei Blossom Trees
