Use a reflective composition with a level shooting angle to fully capture the National Centre for the Performing Arts, the Great Hall of the People, and their reflections on the water. Keep the background as a dark night sky to highlight the lighting effects. Stand at a position level with the water on the opposite shore to ensure that the buildings and their reflections are symmetrical, enhancing the balance and atmosphere of the image.
Shooting Time: It is recommended to shoot at night when the lighting has a more atmospheric feel.
