Long axial view connecting Upper and Lower Belvedere

The line that binds the ensemble is the photo everyone wants.

Alignment Tips

Center lines, balanced flanks, patient timing.

Gear & Setup

35–50mm for natural perspective; avoid extreme wide angles.
Level horizon with path edges or pond borders.
Wait for fewer people to keep clarity on symmetry.

Long View

Bottom Line

Symmetry is generous—stand steady and let it work.
