33.8k reviews
40 meters east of the intersection of Wangjing East Road and Guangshun South Street, Chaoyang District, Beijing.
Photography Tips
The model stands on the steps, while the photographer crouches halfway by the stones under the tree, shooting upward at a slight angle or standing to take a level shot. Capture the wide view of Huaxi and the curve of the riverbank, with the flowers naturally forming a frame within the composition. The right side of the frame shows the extension of the riverbank, enhancing the sense of depth. Use a 35mm or 50mm lens on a camera or the 1x or 2x zoom on a smartphone to retain environmental details while highlighting the harmony between the subject and the background. 1. **Posing Tips**: The model can stand naturally with hands in pockets, looking sideways toward the water or slightly upward at the flowers, creating a casual and serene beauty. 2. **Trip Tips**: It's recommended to shoot on a sunny afternoon when the light is softer, avoiding the harsh midday sun. 3. **Other Tips**: The Hai Tang Flower Stream is quite long and perfect for a stroll. The area around Wangjing also has many Korean restaurants.
