Use a centered composition to place the wood sign with the character “爨” in the center of the frame, highlighting the main subject. The photographer should shoot from a straight-on angle to ensure the sign is clear and complete. The framing should include the stone walls on both sides of the sign, the hanging corn, the stone-paved road below, and part of the roof above, to capture the overall atmosphere of the ancient village shop.

Travel Tip: It is recommended to shoot during clear weather and good daylight hours.
