The model is positioned at the right one-third of the frame. It is recommended that the photographer use a telephoto lens and apply the rule of thirds for composition. The left side should include the yellow-glazed eaves of Baohe Palace and the blue “Baohe Palace” plaque, while the right side should have the blurred silhouette of the person, enhancing the depth and narrative of the image, and highlighting the architectural details and ancient atmosphere.

Other tips: Avoid crowds by traveling off-peak.
