The photographer positions themselves slightly to the side and front of the building and trees, capturing the scene at eye level. This approach naturally incorporates the building's roof, doors, and windows, along with the trees into the frame. The roof, trees, and architectural details occupy different areas of the image, creating a balanced and layered composition. A standard lens is recommended to accurately represent the scene's proportions, clearly showing the architectural details, fruit shapes, and tree textures, while precisely recording the layout of the elements in the frame. Travel Tips: ① Admission: Free, but reservations are required. A daily visitor limit of 400 is in place, and up to 40 visitors can register to enter if the museum is not at capacity (without a reservation). ② Hours: Closed on Mondays. Open Tuesday through Sunday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with the last entry at 4:30 PM.
