Tử Cấm Thành, Trung Quốc
Digital photograph · Architectural Photography
A broad architectural photograph presents a grand Chinese palace beyond an expansive stone courtyard, with the central gateway aligned precisely along the receding pavement. Tiered roofs, vermilion columns, carved terraces, and guardian statues create a measured rhythm across the facade, while the pale sky and open foreground lend the scene a sense of spaciousness and ceremonial calm.
