T sits under a low tree, his hand gently resting on the trunk, head bowed with a gentle smile, his posture naturally relaxed. The photographer shoots at eye level, using foreground composition to let the nearby leaves partially block the sunlight, creating natural light spots to add depth to the image. The framing includes the model, the tree trunk, and surrounding green leaves, with a blurred background to highlight the subject. A medium telephoto or 3x zoom on a phone is used to bring the model closer, compress the background, and intensify the green tones.
