The model is positioned at the forefront on the left side of the frame, while the photographer shoots from the front at eye level. The composition uses contrasting elements, with the model’s black coat contrasting against the red envelope and the ancient architecture in the background. This color contrast highlights the main subject. A medium telephoto lens is used to blur the background, making the model and the red envelope in the foreground stand out, emphasizing the subject. Travel Tip: If you want to capture spacious, crowd-free photos, it’s strongly recommended to come either at midday or early in the morning, especially during the Spring Festival. Arriving early not only helps you avoid crowds but also allows you to photograph the red lanterns hanging along Shichahai, creating a festive atmosphere.
