Using a frame-within-a-frame composition, place the牌坊 (paifang) arch of the Temple of Heaven Park as the foreground frame, with the distant Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests centered in the background. Include the green trees on both sides to enhance the natural depth. The photographer should stand a bit further below the arch and use a slightly upward angle to emphasize the depth and perspective of the paifang and the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests. Travel Tip: Admission is 10 RMB.
