1. Perspective: The photographer stands at a close side position to the subject and the fairy stove, capturing the scene from a nearly eye-level angle.
2. Framing: The blooming purple flower branches in the foreground contrast sharply with the subject's light purple ancient attire, the dark fairy stove, and the dark red walls of the ancient architecture, forming a tripartite composition with the flower branches on top, the subject in the middle, and the fairy stove and ground below.
3. Lens recommendation: Use a medium telephoto lens to blur the foreground and background, highlighting the subject.

1. Shooting techniques:
   ① With the red door as the background, there is a magnolia tree in front.
   ② With Chinese-style architecture, courtyards, and corridors as the background, there are multiple camera positions available.
   ③ Framing the person within the door frame is very much in line with Chinese aesthetics, and when combined with the budding Bauhinia flowers, it makes for a very picturesque shot.
   ④ If the clothing features a large skirt or wide sleeves, it is very suitable for creating dramatic and elegant poses.
