The photographer stands on the central axis directly facing the Vajra Throne Pagoda, choosing a level shot angle with the camera position slightly lower than the base of the pagoda to create a more stable and symmetrical composition. The symmetry is emphasized by aligning the central axis of the pagoda, gate arch, and steps within the frame. The natural framing effect from the branches on both sides adds depth to the image. 1. Equipment settings: Nikon Z5 24-200mm. 2. Travel tips: The entrance fee is 10 RMB and no reservation is required.
