Sensory Focus

Choose a photograph and describe it so vividly that a reader can imagine seeing, smelling, touching, hearing and tasting the scene.

A good description can activate all five senses and create a vivid impression. For this prompt, delve deeply into a particular photograph and describe its every facet—intensifying the visual elements, adding sounds, scents, textures, even tastes. This not only tests your descriptive skills but enhances the ability to extract the multidimensional depth from a two-dimensional image.
