It is recommended that the photographer shoot from a slightly lower than eye-level angle, possibly in a half-squat position. This angle allows the viewer to see the signs and displayed items above the bar clearly. In terms of composition, using the center composition technique is suggested, placing the bar and the sign at the center of the frame to draw the viewer’s attention. The high stools in front of the bar serve as the foreground, adding depth to the image. Using a wide-angle lens is also recommended to capture more of the environment, including the buildings and decorations on both sides, providing a complete view of the entire scene.
