Suggest using a foreground composition, placing hydrangeas at the bottom of the frame as the foreground, with towering pines in the background to form the focal point. Mimic the angle in the image, with the photographer squatting slightly lower and using an upward angle to stretch the depth and layering of the scene. Ensure clear boundaries between the hydrangeas and the pines to highlight the contrast between the blooming flowers and the lush background. If the hydrangeas are more abundant, it will enhance the color contrast and appeal of the image. Photography tip: It would be more visually appealing to photograph with more hydrangeas in a few days, and since the Small Wild Goose Pagoda is behind the pines, you can also compose the scene with hydrangeas, pines, and the ancient tower, giving the image a more storytelling feel.
