The model stands beside a wooden railing by the water, with the photographer shooting at eye level. The model is positioned slightly to the left of center, using the wooden railing as a foreground element to add depth to the image. The rule of thirds is applied to balance the subject with the background, ensuring the composition includes the foreground railing, the midground model, and the background water and traditional architecture with a tower, enhancing the overall ambiance. Travel Tip: It is recommended to shoot during clear weather with good sunlight.
