Use a frame-within-a-frame composition, with an arch as the foreground frame, to center the red "good fortune" character wall in the middle of the shot. A straight-on shooting angle ensures the arch is fully symmetrical, while the background includes gray brick walls and stone pathways to add depth to the environment. It's recommended to use a standard focal length lens to emphasize the layers between the subject and the frame.
