The photographer is positioned directly in front of the subject, shooting at eye level. The rule of thirds is used in the composition, with the subject placed in the lower one-third of the frame, while the red gate occupies the upper part of the image, creating a visual balance. A standard lens is used to accurately depict the scene, maintaining the true proportions of the subject, the red gate, and the steps, with no noticeable distortion. Travel Tips: 1. Admission: Yangyue Hutong is free and open to the public, no ticket required. 2. Opening Hours: Open 24/7.
