Framed by the red wooden pillars on both sides, the golden eaves and roof decorations of the Temple of Heaven are prominently displayed in the center, with a touch of blue sky and white clouds in the background to enhance the sense of depth. The photographer shoots from a level angle, capturing the view through the gaps between the wooden pillars, focusing on the intricate patterns of the roof. A telephoto lens is recommended to compress the space and highlight the architectural details, blurring the foreground pillars to make the subject stand out.
