Photographers can frame their shots from 3 to 5 meters away from the main structure of the building, with a smaller aperture to highlight the outline and texture of the temple architecture. It is recommended to use a camera with a wide-angle lens of 16-35mm focal length, and set the aperture between f/8 and f/11. This will allow for a complete and clear recording of the grand scene of the temple.
