In terms of composition, the character "爨" is placed on the left side of the frame, while the metal door handle and knocker on the right balance the image. The shot is taken from a straight-on angle, focusing on a portion of the wooden door to retain the wood grain in the background. This highlights the texture contrast between the text and the metal components, compressing the space to make the details of the subject clearer.
