Keep the sculpture of the cattle herd in clear focus. Use a centered composition to place the sculpture in the middle of the frame, highlighting its three-dimensional quality and intricate textures. Shooting from a straight-on angle will better showcase the layers of the sculpture. Simplify the background to avoid any distracting elements, ensuring that the main subject stands out visually and the overall image remains clean. Travel Tips: ① Admission: Free entry, but advance reservation is required. ② Opening Hours: Open daily from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM (last entry at 4:00 PM, visitors must exit by 4:30 PM). From June 1 to October 31, extended hours are in effect, with the museum open from 9:00 AM to 5:30 PM (last entry at 4:30 PM). The museum is closed on Mondays for routine maintenance.
