The photographer uses an upward shooting angle and a centered composition, placing the yellow wall and the eaves in the center of the frame to highlight the outline of the main building. The foreground includes branches and leaves from trees on both sides, while the background retains a portion of the blue sky, enhancing the depth and natural atmosphere of the image.

The photographer stands below the building, shooting upwards with a diagonal composition that extends the double-eaved roof from the lower left to the upper right, guiding the viewer's eye to highlight the beauty of the ancient architecture's lines. The frame includes the roof tiles, decorative details, and a background of blue sky and white clouds, maintaining a clean and uncluttered image. It is recommended to use a medium-telephoto lens to avoid clutter and emphasize the layers of the eaves.
