Using a foreground composition, incorporate a blue carved stone pillar on the right side and blur it to enhance the depth of the image. Shoot at eye level, including the courtyard stone stele, the group of stone pillars, and the surrounding green trees, while retaining the details of the brick and stone pavement. The photographer should stand slightly in front of the foreground pillar, and a wide-angle lens is recommended to highlight the rustic charm of the central stele and its natural integration with the environment. Travel Tip: Admission is 10 RMB.

Place the large drum in the frame to highlight the main subject. The photographer should ensure that the red-walled building’s roof, the trees on the right, and the blue sky are included in the background. Adding a stone bench and the stone-paved path in the foreground will enhance the depth of the scene.
