Experience the poetic scenery through the eyes of the ancients!

The duckweed in the Book of Songs is a thousand-year-old longing. Round leaves float on the green waves, yellow flowers scatter in the flowing light, swaying gracefully by the waterside in "Guan Ju" 🌿
A gentle lady’s hand brushing past turns it into the ripples of a gentleman’s dream✨✨
It turns out the oldest love poems are all written in the entwining of duckweed and the waters of Taihu Lake 🌈

📍: Bogong Island
⏰: 7:00-8:00 AM
🅿️: Bogong Island South Parking Lot (park your car, turn right, and walk along the lakeside)

📸 Shooting tips:
Core idea: Highlight the vitality of the duckweed + the layered feel of the water town (combining foreground, midground, and background)
Overhead shot + symmetrical composition: Low angle close to the water surface, let the duckweed occupy 2/3 of the frame, with the water reflecting the sky or mountain shadows, and small boats in the distance adding a storytelling element.
Rule of thirds composition: Duckweed in the foreground (bottom 1/3), bridge in the midground (golden ratio point), mountain tower in the background (top 1/3), creating clear layers.
