Photography Tips
1. Use the rule of thirds for composition; shoot with a 2x/medium telephoto lens, placing the subject at the bottom of the frame. 2. Shooting Time: Recommended from 7-9 AM (soft light and fewer people) or 1 hour before the park closes (sunset lights up the walls beautifully). 3. Dress Suggestions: 1. New Chinese Style (complementary to the architecture) - For women: Solid-colored modernized cheongsam/qipao/Hanfu (off-white, light gray, light blue, etc., low-saturation colors) paired with: embroidered shawl + pearl hairpin + canvas shoes. - For men: Linen button-up shirt + black straight-leg pants, paired with: folding fan + leather bracelet (for added detail). 2. Minimalist Modern Style (highlighting the contrast between the subject and the architecture) - For women: White dress + camel coat. - For men: White shirt + dark gray suit pants. Color Tips Use no more than three color palettes (cleaner against the red wall background).
