The photographer stands indoors near a wooden window frame, using it as a foreground element. The composition includes the eaves of ancient buildings, wall decorations, and blooming trees, distributing the main elements in suitable positions within the frame without focusing on a single subject. A medium telephoto lens is used to slightly blur the background, creating a sense of depth.

Timing: It is recommended to arrive at the park at 8 a.m. to avoid crowds; the light is most beautiful after 4 p.m., making it a great time for photos.

Props: Use oil-paper umbrellas, folding fans, antique books, or a reflector to add light to faces.
