The photographer stands directly in front of the subject, using a horizontal perspective to capture the image. They employ the central composition method, placing the subject at the center of the frame to highlight the main figure and the fan in their hand. A standard focal length lens is chosen to restore the scene's true proportions and avoid image distortion.

Additional tips:
1. The bell tower lights up at 7:30 PM, so you can arrive early to find a good spot. The moment the lights come on is very beautiful and is worth recording in a short video.
2. The security guard will clear the area at the Kaiyuan Shopping Mall observation deck at 9:30 PM, so please be mindful of your photography time.

Walking Guide

Navigate to No. 6 Jiefang Market, Dongda Street, Xi'an City (near the Bell Tower). Exit from Metro Station Zhonglou, take Exit C.

Go inside the mall and head to the 5th floor to the Li Ning counter or the 6th floor to the Fila counter to find the entrance to the viewing platform (there are viewing platform signs inside Kaiyuan Shopping Mall, so if you can't find the way, just follow the signs).
