The photographer stands at a lower position in front of the model and is recommended to use a medium telephoto lens for a slight upward angle shot. The circular body and painted portico of the Qiniandian form a natural frame, placing the model within the "frame" in the foreground. The architectural details (gilded decorations, glazed tiles) extend into the background, creating a three-layer space: "foreground model - mid-scene architecture - distant sky." The model's blue shawl echoes the blue and gold plaque and painted decorations of the Qiniandian, while the black clothing coordinates with the dark roof tiles and wooden structures of the building.
