I recommend placing the green train car in the center of the frame, highlighting the full front and details of the locomotive. Use a straight-on angle to ensure the front structure of the car is fully and symmetrically visible. Include the museum’s steel roof and the black train exhibit on the left to add depth to the scene. A wide-angle lens is recommended to capture the relationship between the train car and the exhibition hall.
