Use a frame-within-a-frame composition, with branches naturally forming a foreground frame to highlight the corner tower as the main subject. The photographer should shoot from a low angle, placing the corner tower in the center of the frame to showcase architectural details and grandeur. The composition should include the foreground branches, the full view of the corner tower, and the sky in the background to enhance depth. It is recommended to use a medium to long focal length lens for this shot. Additional tips: Be mindful of heat protection on hot days.
