The model stands beside a stone wall, positioned at the one-third mark on the right side of the frame. The photographer uses a high-angle shot and the rule of thirds to highlight the integration of the model with the environment. The composition should include the foreground stone wall, the red wall in the background, and the river, with tree branches overhead to add depth. The model holds a fan naturally by her side, leaning against the stone wall in a relaxed pose. Travel Tip: It is recommended to book tickets one week in advance.
