The model stands at the edge of a large platform, and the photographer positions themselves 7-8 meters away from the model, using a straight-on angle to maintain eye level. Use the rule of thirds for composition, placing the model in the lower right third of the frame, leaving ample space in the background to highlight the layers of the peach blossom trees and the distant buildings. Use a 50mm lens on a camera or the 2x zoom on a smartphone to moderately compress the space and enhance the depth relationship between the background and the subject.

1. Equipment: Fuji XH2, 16-55mm lens.
2. Poses:
① The model (carefully) walks back and forth on the platform for candid shots.
② The model turns sideways, crossing their arms.
3. Travel Tips: No admission fee required.
