Shoot upwards from below the Great Wall, highlighting the brick details and texture of the parapet walls, with the arched eaves of the watchtower positioned at the center of the frame. The walls on either side should be symmetrically distributed to enhance the stability of the composition. The framing should include the stone structure of the walls, the decorative elements at the top of the watchtower, and the background of mountains and blue sky, showcasing the integration of the Great Wall with nature. A telephoto lens is recommended to compress the background and emphasize the details of the main subject.
