The photographer stands directly in front of the moon-decorated building's entrance, highlighting the curved outline and three-dimensional quality of the moon decoration. Using a centered composition, place the moon decoration in the center of the frame, with the surrounding hutong buildings naturally extending on both sides to form leading lines that draw the viewer’s attention to the main subject. The framing should include the background sky with clouds and sunset light, while the foreground features the stone pavement. Retain the brick walls on both sides to enhance the environmental layers. It is recommended to use a wide-angle lens to capture the depth of the buildings and the overall atmosphere.
