From the angle of the shot, the photographer is at the same level as the exhibit, capturing it straight on, which fully showcases the overall shape and detailed features of the copper seated dragon. In terms of composition, a central composition is used, placing the copper seated dragon at the center of the frame. The plain red background is uniform and free from any distracting elements, highlighting the main subject. Additionally, a symmetrical composition is employed, ensuring a balanced appearance of the dragon on both sides, which adds to the stability of the image. In terms of lens usage, a standard lens is used to naturally reproduce the proportions and texture of the seated dragon, clearly revealing its scales, wings, claws, and the overall majestic form.
