1,Looking for symmetrical beauty.
Whether ancient or modern, the Chinese love symmetrical aesthetics unabated, especially in buildings. So, you see, the buildings that are common in our lives basically abide by the principle of symmetry. In this case, when we take pictures of the buildings, we should make good use of the symmetrical composition to show the solemnity and grandeur of the buildings.

In general, when we visit some famous scenic spots, there will be a lot of tourists. Buildings such as the Imperial Palace and the Temple of Heaven, it is basically impossible to take a panoramic view of it. At this time, photographers have to look for their own angles to take local pictures. You can also find symmetrical points. The following is the award-winning work of the Ancient Architecture Competition. The photographer uses the back shot to combine the two eaves and the top of the prayer hall to form a perfect symmetry.

2,Make use of the framework to enrich the levels.
A single shot of a building, the picture will inevitably make people have a sense of boredom, want to make the picture more flexible, hierarchical, you can try to use the framework to compose. Put the main building to be represented in a frame, and the sense of spatial hierarchy comes out immediately.

Or use the structural shape of the building itself to create a frame, such as the "box in the box" in the following figure is very attractive, the depth of the picture is also very strong.

3,Add elements to set off the atmosphere.
This is somewhat similar to the use of the framework mentioned above to enrich the picture hierarchy, both in order to make the building look less monotonous, while adding elements to add a more artistic beauty. Shooting the general environment of the building, you can consider integrating the scenery of the sky into it, which is more expressive.

4,Don't miss the details. Many photographers want to use large scenes to show the momentum of the building, in fact, we can start with some small details, such as some ancient buildings, its details often better reflect the ingenious technology.

5,Make good use of lines to strengthen expression. In the previous photographic composition, the author also introduced that lines can be used to enhance the expressive force, and so can the shooting of buildings. The road surface in the foreground is a line that guides the audience's line of sight to the main building. At the same time, the impact and extension of the picture are also shown.

6,Using reflection.
If you want to show the emptiness of the building, using reflection is the best way. Whether it is a small bridge or an ancient building, as long as there is water, you can make good use of it.

Even after the rain, a small puddle on the road can take pictures of different buildings, as long as you have the heart to be beautiful everywhere.

7, try black and white photography .
Some people think that black and white photography can not show the color, details of the building, but occasionally used once in a while will have an unexpected effect. This monotonic form of expression can better reflect the sense of age and vicissitudes of the building.

Add the embellishment of character elements, will make the picture more storytelling.
