The photographer stands at the Gǔlǎngyǔ pier, facing the harbor, using an upward shooting angle. The boats are positioned on the left side of the frame, while modern high-rise buildings are on the right, creating a balanced composition. The depth of the scene is enhanced by the layered composition, with a white coast guard boat in the foreground, the pier facilities in the midground, and the glass-clad skyscrapers and sky in the background. The framing should include the full view of the boats, the pier, and the buildings, showcasing the harmonious relationship between the harbor and the city’s architecture.
