Shoot from an eye-level perspective, with lotus flowers and leaves as the main elements. Use a compositional technique that highlights the subject by placing the lotus flower at the center of the frame, with surrounding leaves as supporting elements. The simple background will emphasize the purity and elegance of the lotus flower. Utilize the shapes and colors of the leaves to create a contrast with the lotus, enhancing the visual appeal of the image. Use a standard lens to achieve a shallow depth of field, which will blur the background and clearly capture the texture of the lotus petals, color gradations, and the quality of the leaves, conveying a fresh, elegant, and poetic visual experience. Equipment settings: Sony a7c2, lens is Meike 85.
