1. Perspective: The photographer stands directly in front of the bookstand, capturing the scene at eye level. 2. Composition techniques: Employing repetitive and contrasting compositions, the many similar scrolls are arranged in a way that creates a sense of rhythm. The different patterns and colors (such as animal and fruit designs, as well as red and green hues) on the scrolls contrast with each other, drawing the viewer's attention. 3. Lens usage: A mid-range lens is used to clearly display the pattern details and texture of the scrolls. Travel advice: There are almost no restaurants, only small stalls selling mirror cakes, so it's best to have a meal before going.

The photographer stands in front of the bookstand, capturing the bookstand, shops, and the surrounding environment at a horizontal angle. By using a contrast composition, the rich and colorful products of the bookstand contrast with the dark signs of the shops, highlighting the main subject of the bookstand. A wide-angle lens is also used to include a larger scope of the bookstand and shop scene. 1. Travel tips: It is recommended to visit between 14:00 and 19:00 (some shops will start to close after 19:00). 2. Other experiences: Some merchants selling calligraphy and paintings do not allow photography, and there will be a charge if you take pictures.

The model stands next to the fan booth, with the photographer maintaining a frontal shot directly opposite the model, slightly below the model's eye level to highlight the integration of the model and the background. The composition is centered and slightly right, with the model positioned slightly to the right of the center, and the fan booth behind forming rich background elements, enhancing the sense of depth in the image. A standard lens is used for shooting, suitable for recording environmental details and highlighting the overall relationship between the model and the background. The model can hold a large fan, with the body slightly turned towards the camera, adding interest and dynamism to the image, while echoing the background elements. Additional suggestions: Choose a sunny day for the outing.
