Chongqing Changshou Lake Jacaranda | A beautiful tree that has been blooming for 100 years

A beautiful tree that has been blooming for 100 years. I have been waiting for the blooming season of this jacaranda this year, knowing it is very large and the flowers are dense, but I was still shocked when I saw it with my own eyes. This must be the most beautiful jacaranda tree you can see in Chongqing. 🔺Everyone who walks under the tree exclaims how beautiful it is! And they take out their phones to snap a few pictures. 🔺Although there is a parking lot right next to the flowers, you can still take nice photos by finding the right angle. Here I share some photography tips from this experience. 📸 Photography suggestions: 1. Lawn on the right side of the parking lot - The photographer goes to a lower spot, and the model stands on the higher lawn, shooting upwards to capture photos with only the grass, jacaranda, and sky, using a telephoto lens or zooming in with a phone. - Wide shot: You can capture the entire tree, and the model can make bigger movements, such as walking back and forth, looking up at the sky with hands behind, or turning around to look at the tree. - Medium shot: Take photos of just the tree canopy and lawn, leaving less of the grass on the ground, with the model standing or sitting for a few shots. 2. Horizontal photo stitching - Take several horizontal photos for stitching, one with a person walking along the skyline, a medium shot with only flowers in the background, or a person close to the lens, using a person as the foreground to take a photo of the tree canopy. - Insert flowers in a book, hold it high with the tree canopy as the background. 3. Upward shot in front of the tree - Stand in front of the tree, take an upward shot with the whole tree, and have the model stand a bit more towards the camera. This tree is so big that you can't see the person when standing under it. 4. Bring a stool - Standing a bit higher for an upward shot can capture photos with only the tree canopy in the background. 📍Address: - Changshou Lake Square 🅿️ Parking: - There is a parking lot right at the entrance, 6 yuan/day. Changshou Lake Square - It takes 1.5 hours to drive from the main city, and it is not an exaggeration to say it's worth visiting this tree specifically. After all, it's much closer than going to Kunming, and the surroundings of Changshou Lake are also quite beautiful, making it a great place for weekend camping and outings 👗 Outfit suggestions: - Yellow tones go well with jacaranda! It creates a fresh and bright feeling when photographed. Remember to wear a dress or shirt made of light material, as the skirt hem or shirt corner looks better when blown by the wind at the lakeside.
