Using the rule of thirds, the person is positioned at the right one-third of the frame, with a bronze incense burner in the foreground on the left to balance the composition. The shot is taken from a straight-on angle, with the model侧身 leaning towards the incense burner, arms gently wrapped around the burner, and head lowered to naturally touch it, enhancing the interaction with the ancient artifact. The background is blurred to highlight the details of the person, the incense burner, and the red wall, creating a sense of historical atmosphere.

The two models should stand side by side, holding hands with a natural and intimate posture. The scene should include the bamboo forest, the subjects, and the background of the setting sun and trees, creating a classical and atmospheric feel.
