The photographer stands at a slightly lower position in front of the building, using an upward angle to emphasize its height. The main building is positioned in the center of the frame, with symmetrical structures on both sides to highlight the architectural balance. The composition includes the entire building, from the traditional Chinese roof at the top to the front windows and the connecting corridor on the right, while also retaining some of the sky to add a sense of openness.
