Wearing a cheongsam will make your photos even better. • Moon Bridge: At night, the bridge and its reflection in the water look like a moon. You can find an angle to take photos by the bridge or on the opposite bank. Photography Tips • Composition: Use symmetrical composition to capture arcades and buildings; use the rule of thirds to place the subject at the intersection or on the dividing line; use frame composition to highlight the subject with doors and windows. • Light and Shadow: Side light in the afternoon can highlight the three-dimensional effect of the arcades. Backlight in the evening can capture silhouettes. Use lights at night to create an atmosphere. • Portraits: Let the person blend into the scene and increase interaction. You can take close-ups, half-body, or full-body photos. Pay attention to the coordination between the person and the background.
