Photography Tips
The photographer stands beside the stone railing at the lakeside, using an upward shooting angle and frame composition. The foreground includes the stone railing and lotus leaves, while the upper part of the frame is naturally framed by tree leaves. The middle section captures the lake, and the ancient architecture in the distance is placed slightly below the center of the frame. The sky is retained to enhance the sense of depth. Travel Tip: Admission is free.
