The photographer stands below the ancient architecture to shoot upward, allowing the diagonal lines of the eaves to naturally guide the viewer's gaze, highlighting the layered structure of the buildings. The composition includes multiple tiers of overhanging eaves, golden decorations, and plaques, with the background incorporating the blue sky and white clouds to add a sense of openness. A wide-angle lens is recommended for this shot. When shooting, pay attention to adjusting the exposure compensation to avoid overexposure of the sky or underexposure of the architectural details.

Travel Tip: It is recommended to shoot during clear weather with good sunlight.
