1. Angle: The photographer stands in the center of Yuyuan Square, slightly tilting the camera upward to use a low angle to emphasize the grandeur of the architecture and the distant position of the moon.
2. Composition: Use leading lines to guide the viewer’s eye. The eaves in the upper left corner and the roof lines of the buildings on the right naturally extend, directing attention to the main structure and full moon in the center of the frame.
3. Lens Focal Length: Use a 50mm focal length or the 2x zoom on a smartphone, which is suitable for medium-distance focusing, emphasizing architectural details and compressing the sense of space to enhance the depth of the image.
4. Framing: Include the eaves on the left as a foreground element, the main building in the center, and the moon in the background, creating a layered and visually deep composition.
