Using an upward angle to highlight the grandeur of the red arch, a symmetrical composition ensures the balance of the arch's structure on both sides. Framing the background lake and green trees within the arch adds depth. The model stands slightly to the right of center, with her right hand pointing naturally towards the top of the arch. The shot includes the full view of the arch, the willow branches on both sides, and the lake within the arch.

Using a centered composition, the statue and its pedestal are placed in the middle of the frame to emphasize the solemnity of the subject. The photographer shoots from a frontal, eye-level angle, standing directly in front of the statue. The frame includes the entire statue, the inscription "Comrade Li Dazhao" on the pedestal, and the surrounding trees and buildings, effectively capturing the environmental context while balancing the details of the subject and its surroundings.

Shooting Time: It is recommended to shoot during clear weather with good daylight.
