Frame the Six Harmonies Pagoda and the bridge in the shot, and adjust the exposure properly. 1. Photography equipment: It is recommended to use a tripod. 2. Other tips: The first shot can also be taken individually of the Six Harmonies Pagoda and the bridge, but if you want to include a train, you need to calculate the timing in advance.

1. Positioning Angle: The photographer stands on the banks of Wentao Road, aligning the bridge in the center, and chooses a flat shooting angle. Keep the camera position slightly low, close to the ground to increase the sense of water surface extension. 2. Composition Method: Use symmetrical composition to perfectly align the bridge with the sun, with the water reflection creating a corresponding upper and lower image. 3. Lens Focal Length: Use a focal length of 85mm-120mm/smartphone 2x-3x to compress space and highlight the bridge and sunset as the main subjects. 4. Other Techniques: When shooting against the light, appropriately reduce the exposure compensation (-0.5 to -1.0) to enhance the layering of the sunset and the saturation of colors. Shooting Time: It is recommended to shoot during sunset.
