The photographer stands in the courtyard in front of the building, using an upward angle to highlight the overhanging eaves and layered structure of the Chinese architecture. The composition follows the rule of thirds, with the main building positioned at the right one-third of the frame. The left side of the image retains the night sky and trees, balancing the composition. The framing must include the white railing, steps, and flower beds with greenery in the foreground, while the background is the dark night sky. This setup captures the overall view of the building and its surroundings, showcasing the nighttime ambiance of the architecture and courtyard.
