The photographer stands on the street in front of the north gate of the former residence, shooting at eye level. The red door contrasts with the gray-black brick wall, highlighting the main subject. The regular geometric lines of the building contrast with the bare branches. A medium-telephoto lens is used to blur parts of the foreground and background, clearly showcasing the details of the architecture, such as the textures of doors and windows, the material of the walls, and the decorations on the door, making the main subject stand out even more. This creates a sense of historical weight and tranquility.

Shooting Time: It is recommended to shoot on a clear day.
