1. Positioning: The photographer stands to the side of the sculpture for a level shot.
2. Composition: Use a combination of foreground and background elements. Place the autumn leaves at the top as the foreground to add seasonal atmosphere and color depth; the buildings in the background help to establish the setting of the sculpture, enriching the content of the image.
3. Lens Recommendation: A medium focal length lens can accurately depict the shape and proportions of the sculpture, avoiding potential distortion from a wide-angle lens. It also compresses the space, making the relationship between the background buildings, the foreground leaves, and the sculpture more harmonious.

The photographer used a centered composition, placing the bronze artifact in the middle of the frame to highlight its symmetrical structure and decorative details. The shooting angle is level, providing a front-on view of the artifact, showing its entirety. The framing includes the main subject and part of the gray exhibition wall, with a decorative sculpture on the right serving as a background element without overpowering the main visual focus.

The composition follows the rule of thirds, with the sculpture positioned at the right one-third of the frame. The left side of the image includes a large backdrop of a scroll, balancing the frame and enhancing the connection with the exhibit. The photographer stands slightly to the left of the exhibit to ensure both the sculpture and the scroll are captured. The framing includes the main body of the sculpture on the right, the complete scroll on the left, and parts of the display case and ceiling lights, enhancing the sense of the exhibition environment.

Use a straight-on shooting angle to display the semi-spherical contour of the stone main body and the intricate detail of the bird on top, placing the sculpture at the center of the frame. Utilize the contrast between the light-colored stone and the dark wall to highlight the main subject. The framing should include the entire sculpture and the wooden pedestal below, with the background incorporating the dark wall on the left to avoid clutter. A wide-angle lens is recommended to fully capture the sculpture's form and the atmosphere of the exhibition hall. Travel Tips: ① Admission: Free; ② Opening Hours: 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM (Closed on Mondays, last entry at 4:00 PM).

The photographer captured the sculpture from a slightly lower position in front of it, using an upward angle to highlight its dynamic extension. Employing a diagonal composition, the curves of the sculpture stretch from the lower left to the upper right, enhancing the tension in the frame. The scene includes the black sculpture as the main subject, a light-colored wall and glass building in the background, and green foliage on the right to add a natural layer, with the base and ground retained in the foreground.
