The meandering lines of the Great Wall on the relief wall extend from the lower left to the upper right, naturally guiding the viewer's gaze. The photographer is shooting directly at the relief wall to ensure a balanced composition. The frame includes the main body of the relief wall, the green shrubs in the foreground, and the trees in the background, adding depth to the scene.

It is recommended to use a level shooting angle and a wide-angle lens. For composition, aim for a balanced left-right symmetry, with the blue calligraphy mural wall on the left and the string of red lanterns on the right to enhance stability in the frame. The shot should include the entire mural wall and the string of red lanterns, with the background featuring green trees and hills, and part of the road in the foreground to add depth and atmosphere to the scene.

Using a centered composition, place the stone stele and its inscription, along with the emblem above it, in the center of the frame to ensure the information is complete. The photographer should stand slightly below the stele and use an upward angle to highlight its solemnity. Include green lotus leaves in the foreground to add depth, and incorporate the shaped greenery (deer and horse) on both sides of the stele in the background to enrich the scene. Ensure the main subject is clear while balancing the foreground and background elements.
