From a shooting position perspective, the photographer selects a position that can accommodate both the main structure of the building and the person, using the seated pose of the person to create a foreground layer that builds a spatial relationship with the background, including Big Ben and the building. In terms of composition, the rule of thirds is employed, placing Big Ben along the vertical third line and the person in the lower third area, balancing the visual center of gravity. The building’s vertical lines are also used to guide the viewer’s gaze to the main subject. A standard lens is used to maintain true spatial proportions, clearly presenting the architectural details, the person's posture, and the relationship with the scene, enhancing the depth and integration of elements in the frame.
Additional tip: It is recommended to shoot when there are fewer people around.
