1. Shooting Angle: The photographer stands slightly below and to the side of the subject, shooting from a low angle to highlight the subject's posture and the lush, flower-filled background. 2. Composition Technique: Use central composition by placing the subject in the center of the frame, with blooming branches surrounding them to emphasize the main subject. 3. Lens Recommendation: Use a medium telephoto lens to blur the background flowers, focus on the subject, and compress the space to create a closer integration between the person and the flowering trees. Shooting Time: We arrived at sunset, when there was no one around. The remaining golden light also produced a nice effect.
