The photographer stands slightly to one side in front of the stone lion, ensuring that the lion and the background stone monument are both in the frame. The composition uses a foreground-background arrangement, with the stone lion in the foreground, clearly showcasing the detailed head carvings. The middle ground includes the complete inscription of "Lugou Bridge" on the stone monument, enhancing the depth of the image. The main subject, the stone lion, the entire stone monument, and parts of the railing and greenery are captured using a telephoto lens to compress the space, making the foreground and background more compact and highlighting the details and historical atmosphere of the relics.

Additional tips: Avoid crowds by visiting during off-peak hours.
