Photography Tips
The model faces away from the camera towards a distant clock tower, with a blurred figure and a sharp background, creating a sense of depth. Equipment settings: The lens is an 18-150mm, with an aperture range of f3.5-6.3. Photographic poses: 1. With the ancient city wall as the backdrop, stride forward with arms swinging, the bigger the movement, the better the shot; 2. Stand under the eaves of an enemy tower, with distant buildings in the background, reach out as if to pick a bell, creating a strong sense of interaction; 3. Lean against the green bricks of the city wall, wear sunglasses, and put your hands in your pockets, exuding a cool vibe; 4. Climb up to the Yongning Gate city wall to a spot where you can capture the street scene with the clock tower in focus, blur the figure, and fill the shot with atmosphere.
