The model stands slightly below the slope of the dune, while the photographer is positioned even lower to capture an upward angle, elongating the lines of the dune. Using the rule of thirds, the dune lines are placed in the upper middle part of the frame, with the distant starry sky occupying one-third of the image to enhance the sense of depth. Additional tips: The top of the dune is relatively quiet and ideal for shooting the night sky. It's recommended to bring your own shoe covers and water. The off-road vehicle costs 300 RMB.
