Use a reflection composition with a low-angle shot to ensure the Olympic Tower and its water reflection are symmetrical. Position the tower in the center of the frame, with the fountains arranged horizontally as the midground, and retain a dark sky in the background to enhance contrast. The frame should include the full tower, the fountains, and the complete reflection. It is recommended to use a standard focal length to ensure the subject and its reflection are clear and balanced. Travel Tip: The Olympic Tower has a light show at 6:00 PM, and then it appears to happen again at half past the hour and on the hour.
