The photographer is positioned in a long corridor, using gaps to frame the scene, creating a frame-within-a-frame effect. In terms of composition, a symmetrical layout is employed, with the red walls and the corridor's floor symmetrically distributed, enhancing the stability of the image. A wide-angle lens is used to capture more of the scene, emphasizing the length of the corridor and the grandeur of the red walls, creating a sense of spatial tension.
