1. Angle: The photographer shoots from a higher position at a diagonal angle, providing a view of some of the buildings, arches, and crowds on the commercial street, fully capturing the bustling atmosphere and architectural features. 2. Composition Techniques: The photographer uses leading lines, such as the pillars of the arch, the direction of the street, and the outlines of buildings, to guide the viewer's eye into the image and create a sense of depth. The rule of thirds is applied, dividing the image horizontally into sky, buildings and people, and ground; and vertically, with the arch as the center, buildings and people on either side, ensuring a balanced distribution of elements. Color contrast is used, with vibrant red, green, and blue hues on the buildings enhancing visual impact. Additionally, the sharp focus on the foreground buildings and the blurred background crowds, along with the size difference, add depth and layers to the image.

The model is seated at a window seat on the left side of the frame, with the photographer shooting at eye level to ensure the composition is balanced. A wooden pillar on the right and the greenery outside the window create a sense of balance, while vertical lines guide the viewer’s eye, enhancing the depth of the image. The scene is layered with objects on the table, mid-ground chairs, and the lush greenery in the background. The model is turned slightly, resting her chin on her hand and looking out the window, her pose natural and tranquil.
