Photography Tips
Photographers should maintain a distance of 1 - 1.5 meters from the subject, making use of the symmetrical lines of the architecture to compose the shot, including elements such as plaques and pillars in the frame. The best lighting for shooting is from 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM and from 3:00 PM to 4:30 PM, which allows for a sense of beauty with interplay of light and shadow. Both smartphones and cameras can be used. For smartphones, turn on HDR mode to enhance the layering of the image; for cameras, choose a focal length of 35 - 50 mm, and set the aperture to f/2.8 - f/4 to highlight the texture of the image and the atmosphere of the ancient temple.
