1. Positioning: The photographer should stand on the second floor or above the escalator to capture the light and shadow patterns on the ground, ensuring that the skylight patterns are fully visible. 2. Composition: Use the rule of thirds, placing the circular center of the light and shadow in the lower middle part of the frame. Capture a food delivery person entering the light and shadow area to add interest and movement to the image. 3. Lens Recommendation: A 50mm-85mm lens is recommended to compress the background and emphasize the light and shadow as the main subject. 4. Equipment Settings: Use a Sony a7m4 camera with the YGN 27/2.8 AF lens, and enable APS-C mode to avoid dark borders around the edges of the image.
