The photographer captures the subject at eye level on the Great Wall. The person leans against the wall, becoming the focal point, with their green hooded jacket contrasting against the gray and white wall. The background utilizes the lines of the Great Wall's bricks and the sunset over the distant mountains to create a layered composition: the foreground (the person), the midground (the wall), and the background (the mountains and setting sun). The horizontal lines of the wall and the vertical lines of the person complement each other, reinforcing the balance of the image and conveying a unique atmosphere where human and nature blend harmoniously.

Pose: Leaning against the wall, not looking at the camera.
