Use a low-angle shot to emphasize the three-dimensionality of the stone pillars and the stone tablet. Employ the rule of thirds in composition, placing the left stone pillar and iron gate on the left third of the frame, and the right stone tablet on the right third, achieving balance. Frame the shot to include the entrance, the "St. Michael's Catholic Church" plaque, the stone tablet, and the leaves above to add a natural atmosphere. Shooting time: It is recommended to shoot during clear weather when natural light is good.
