Using a symmetrical composition, the red lanterns are evenly distributed on both sides, with the central window and decorations positioned in the middle to enhance the balance of the image. The photographer should use a level shooting angle to ensure that the walls, lanterns, and green plants are aligned vertically. It is recommended to use a medium to long focal length to compress the space and make the elements more compact, avoiding unnecessary background distractions.
Travel Tips: Free admission all day.
