1. Photographer's Position: The photographer stands directly in front of the small door of the bar, at a slightly further distance, at eye level, capturing the “Blessing” door curtain, the decorations by the door, the steps, the luggage storage facilities, potted plants, and surrounding walls in the frame.
2. Composition Technique: Utilize framing composition, with the doorway serving as the foreground frame, guiding the viewer's gaze into the interior, enhancing the depth of the image.
3. Lens Usage: Use a medium to telephoto lens to compress the space, making the various elements near the entrance appear closely packed, creating a vibrant and atmospheric scene with personality and warmth.
1. Travel Tips: No admission ticket required. Recommended shooting hours are 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
2. Outfit Tips: White T-shirt + plaid skirt for a Japanese-inspired look.
