Using a centered composition, place the main structure of the pavilion in the center of the frame, with willows symmetrically distributed on both sides to enhance balance. The shot should include the full view of the pavilion, the background willows, and the reflection in the foreground water to add depth. Equipment settings: Nikon Z7ii, lens 70-200mm, aperture F2.8, shutter speed automatic, ISO 64, white balance 5000.
