Photography Tips
Shoot at a distance of about 4 meters, focal length of 40mm, and aperture of 8. Be mindful to avoid pedestrians while shooting. Photography tips: 1. Go before 10 am on weekdays when there are almost no people. Start by capturing the Buddha's eye and the corner positions along the outer wall, which will save a lot of time and avoid the embarrassment of waiting in line for photos; 2. Taking photos of road signs can yield great shots, so move around or look up at the sign; 3. At the Buddha's eye and the character for "fortune" gate, you can use the perspective technique by standing closer to the camera to block the crowd; 4. At the area where candles are offered, you can use mirror reflections to create interesting images; 5. Pay attention to places with red walls and bamboo, as the contrast of bamboo shadows against the red walls can produce stunning photos.
