Use the rule of thirds for composition, placing the green plants and small red flowers at the bottom third of the frame, the lake in the middle third, and the distant mountains and pagoda at the top third. This enhances the sense of depth and balance in the image. Shoot from a slightly lowered angle to increase the visual proportion of the foreground plants, adding more depth to the composition. Maintain the background scenery as in the reference image, ensuring the completeness of the lake, mountains, and pagoda. It is recommended to use a wide-angle lens to capture a broad field of view while maintaining clear details of the flowers and surroundings.

1. Travel Tips: Shihu Scenic Area is a cool spot for summer. It's recommended to visit in early July to see the lotus flowers in bloom.
2. Additional Tips: Parking is free.
