Shooting Angle: Due to the uneven shooting location, a tripod is needed for camera stability. Frame the TV tower, bell tower, Anyuan Gate, and railway tracks.

Composition Method: Vertical shooting best captures the beauty of central axis symmetry.

Lens Suggestion: 50-70mm

Equipment Settings: Photos are recommended to be taken during the blue hour, with a slower shutter speed to capture light trails. For time-lapse photography, start shooting half an hour before sunset in summer (can capture the moment when the bell tower and Anyuan Gate lights up).
