The photographer uses an upward angle to emphasize the towering height of the Oriental Pearl Tower. By employing a centered composition, the tower is placed in the middle of the frame to ensure the main subject is complete. The range of the shot includes the foreground road barrier and the background sky and surrounding buildings, enhancing the depth of the image. Travel Tip: It is recommended to visit on a sunny day, specifically between 9-11 AM or 4-6 PM, when the light is softer and the photo results are optimal.
