The photographer stands at the northeast corner with the camera slightly lower, keeping parallel to the ground. Choose the pillar as the foreground to capture the effect of light and shadow passing through the pillars and projecting onto the prayer wheel. Use a framing composition with the light and shadow of the pillars as the foreground, and use the patterned obstructing object in the foreground to form a frame, guiding the viewer's focus to the Buddhist shrine. It is recommended to use a 50mm prime lens or a 2x focal length on a phone to highlight details and the texture of light and shadow, avoiding a too wide frame that would disrupt the focus of the subject.
