The photographer uses a low-angle shot, capturing from below the sign and looking upward to include the ancient building's eaves and blue circular decorations above. Employing a centralized composition, the "I'm in Ditan" orange sign is placed at the center of the frame to highlight the text as the main subject. The shot includes the complete sign text and the detailed painted eaves above, preserving the characteristics of the ancient architecture, while compressing the background to make the subject clearer.
