When photographing the green-skinned train, it is recommended to focus on the train as the main subject of the frame, using a level perspective. Fully display the lines and colors of the train to highlight the retro texture of the green-skinned train. You can use the body lines of the train as leading lines to enhance the depth of the image.

If using a camera, set the aperture to a small range (f/8 - f/11) to ensure sufficient depth of field, and use spot metering to focus on the subject. If shooting with a smartphone, you can choose the "professional mode" and appropriately reduce the exposure compensation, which can well preserve the color and metallic texture details of the train body. It is easier to show the bright colors and retro style of the green-skinned train when shooting in sunny weather.
