Use a low-angle shot, shooting upwards. Place the model at the bottom center of the frame, facing away from the camera with her arms naturally outstretched, holding a red candied fruit skewer that contrasts with the snowy scenery. The composition should create depth with the model in the foreground and the Forbidden City palace in the background, capturing both the full palace view and the snowy foreground. This setup highlights the scene's depth and atmosphere.
