The photographer uses a bird's-eye view from a high point on the observation deck to capture the layered ravines and overall layout of the Terracotta Army pits. The horizontal and vertical soil lines within the pits naturally extend, enhancing the depth and spatial perception of the image. The frame focuses on the main remains within the pit, highlighting the texture of the soil layers and the remaining pottery fragments. Appropriately retaining the edges of the top museum structure adds a sense of environment, fully presenting the vastness and historical depth of the site.
