The composition is centered, placing the red dome and the top five-pointed star in the middle of the frame to ensure the subject is complete and prominent.

Use a low-angle shot with the rule of thirds composition, fill the upper half of the frame with yellow ash tree branches and leaves, place the yellow roof of the ancient building and red walls in the lower half, and use a black streetlight as a foreground element to enhance the sense of depth. The frame should include branches, roof, and blue sky. Travel tip: It's recommended to go between 9-11 AM and 2-4 PM, as the light is better and there are fewer people in the morning. After 4 PM, children will be out of school, leading to more cars and people, which makes it harder to get good shots. However, the light in the afternoon is more suitable for capturing hair with a glow and softer light.

The framing should revolve around the top of the lamppost, with a background that only includes a clear blue sky to avoid any unnecessary elements. Travel Tips: It is advised to reserve tickets one week in advance.

The model stands in front of the café window, with the photographer shooting slightly below the model's eye level at a slightly upward angle to enhance the visual coverage of the flowers. The composition follows the rule of thirds, with the model positioned on the left third of the frame and the roses on the right providing visual balance and enriching the depth of the image. A medium telephoto lens is used to compress space, highlighting the relationship between the subject and the background flowers, and enhancing the overall atmosphere of the scene. 1. Pose for the photo: The model lightly shields her eyes from the sun with her hand, creating a natural and graceful pose. At the same time, she carries a pink bag that echoes the color of the background flowers, enhancing the harmony of the image. 2. Additional advice: Avoid taking photos in the middle of the road, as it is very dangerous.
