Use a top-down angle, incorporating wooden railings or lotus leaves in the foreground to enhance depth, highlight the blooming lotus flowers in the midground, and include a rustic row boat and willow trees by the shore in the background. Ensure the boat and lotus flowers are framed together to create an elegant and ancient atmosphere.

Other tips: The Shichahai area is already in full bloom. It’s recommended to arrive early in the morning, before 10 AM, as it gets too hot later in the day.
