Use a centered composition to place the "Yonghe Palace" plaque at the center of the frame, highlighting the main subject. The photographer should stand directly in front of the plaque and shoot from a slightly upward angle to ensure the plaque is level and not tilted. The frame should include the blue dragon-patterned mural above the plaque and the wooden lattice windows below, showcasing the details and overall atmosphere of the ancient architecture. A wide-angle lens is recommended to capture the entire plaque and its surrounding decorations.
