The photographer uses a low-angle shot to highlight the vast sky and the sense of extension of the red walls. The composition employs leading lines, using the Jinshui River as a straight line to guide the viewer's gaze into the distance. The left side incorporates the red walls, with the central focus on the fountain, and the background includes distant buildings and streetlights, enhancing the depth and layering of the image.

The photographer stands in the alley, maintaining a parallel perspective with the rose, and slightly tilting upwards to enhance the depth of the scene. The rose is positioned at the right third of the frame, with the trees on the left forming a visual balance. It is recommended to use a medium to long focal length lens to compress the scene's layers and highlight the details of the rose.

Shooting time: It is best to shoot during the daytime when the weather is good.

The photographer stands in front of the lawn, using central composition to place the bench at the center of the frame, shooting from a low angle.

1. Equipment settings: Fuji xh2s, 18-55mm lens.
2. Photography poses:
   ① Sitting on the bench is the most classic pose;
   ② Standing in front of the bench with hands in pockets also has a unique charm;
   ③ Standing sideways in front of the bench, touching the branches above the head with one hand, this pose is quite atmospheric.
3. Suggested shooting time: It's best to go on a sunny afternoon, between 14:00-16:00. Sunny days will bring light and shadow, and the wall in front will shimmer, as if it's a sea.
