Shoot from a low angle directly in front of the building, looking up to emphasize the height of the Huangqiongyu. Use a centered composition with the main structure in the middle of the frame, aligning the golden dome and blue plaque in the center, and the red walls symmetrically on both sides to enhance the solemnity. Include the entire building (from the bottom steps to the top dome) and the sky with clouds as the background, keeping the frame clean. Travel Tip: Arrive early to avoid crowds for better photo results.
