The photographer positions themselves low and close to the building, using an upward angle to highlight the eaves and plaque of Tai Sui Hall, emphasizing the grandeur and solemnity of the architecture. The composition employs a frame-within-a-frame technique, where the blurred golden objects in the foreground form a natural frame, guiding the viewer’s focus to the “Tai Sui Hall” plaque and the intricate architectural paintings and bracket structures behind it. Vertical lines (such as the pillars of the hall) and horizontal lines (the outline of the eaves) are used to construct a stable and balanced image. A medium to long focal length lens is used to compress the space, capturing the fine details of the architectural decorations, such as the vibrant painted patterns and the inscriptions on the plaque, making the subject more prominent and layered.
