Photography Tips
The photographer stands in front of the Buddha statue at the top of the Tibetan-style hall, slightly tilting upwards to capture the scene, positioning the camera slightly lower than the Buddha's gaze to enhance the sanctity of the statue. By employing the rule of thirds, the Buddha is placed on the right third line of the frame, leaving space on the left for the detailed paintings and carvings on the top, which adds balance to the image. The foreground includes intricate carvings, while the background encompasses the top paintings, creating a rich layering that strengthens the classical ambiance of the work.
