The photographer stands slightly ahead of the subject, capturing the scene at eye level. By employing a contrast composition, the subject's red attire contrasts with the darker background elements, highlighting the main focus. A mid-telephoto lens is used to blur the background details, further emphasizing the subject. This also compresses the space, creating a tighter integration of the subject with the foreground window lattice and the background environment.
