For the shooting position, the photographer should be at a medium to long distance, using an upward angle to highlight the height and prominence of the iconic neon sign. Compositionally, use the centering technique by placing the neon sign in the center of the frame to attract the viewer’s attention, with the sky as the background, keeping it simple and unobtrusive. Shooting Tips: It is recommended to come in the evening or at night when the neon lights are on, as they look better than during the day.
