The figure stands sideways next to a wooden temple door, creating an interactive relationship with it. Place the figure and the temple door at the center of the frame to make them the focal point; meanwhile, use the door’s frame structure to create a frame-within-a-frame composition, enhancing the depth of the image. It is recommended to use a medium-telephoto lens to compress the space, clearly showing the details of the figure’s attire and the texture of the temple door, while minimizing distractions from the surrounding environment.

Outfit suggestion: Recommend pairing with local ethnic attire.

The model stands in front of a Tibetan-style building, with the photographer positioned slightly to the left of the model, shooting at a slightly upward angle to highlight the architectural features and clothing details. Place the model slightly to the right of the center of the frame, with the background building's windows and decorative elements adding depth to the scene. Use the wide-angle lens on your phone to emphasize the model's attire and background details while maintaining an appropriate perspective compression.

Travel Tip: Make sure to book your visit to Jokhang Temple in advance and bring your ID.
