The photographer stands at a lower position, using an upward angle to make the ancient tower appear even more majestic and grand. At the same time, this angle allows the cherry blossom branches to extend naturally in the frame, creating a harmonious relationship with the tower. By employing foreground composition, the cherry blossoms in the foreground complement the ancient tower in the background, blending the real and the illusionary to add depth to the image. Using the frame-within-a-frame technique, the cherry blossom branches frame the tower, guiding the viewer’s focus to the main subject. A medium telephoto lens is used to compress the space, blur the background sky, and highlight the details of the cherry blossoms and the ancient tower, meticulously showcasing the delicate colors of the blossoms and the rustic textures of the tower. Opening hours: 06:30-17:30.
