Through these new techniques, I have learned to deal with stress well. Through meditation I realized that I can truly relax in an amazing way. It especially helps get in touch with your body. Just being in a quiet, secluded area, trying to “stretch it all out” and get over all the stressed helped dramatically. It was a new technique that was very easy and relaxing.
Robert Mullner The soft focus of the photograph and the solidity colour of the rocks with the calm colours of the sunset intrigues me. I admire the fact usage of the mood that is being presented which is a calm mood. The significance this photograph has on me is how it is such a natural photo being made into a beautiful landscape photo Ozlay The digital composition of this photograph make the time being experienced seem vintage. The red tones in it create a feeling of summer and its festives. The disrupted focus is intriguing as it creates more creativity to the close-up shot of the Esky.
“There was a touch of warmth in the autumn sunshine, and what few trees I saw, all bent a little away from the prevailing wind. Still had a few last russet and golden leaves clinging on to the ends of their branches” this is meaning that the nice autumn feeling you get from the change from summer makes it so easy to describe. Golden leaves suggest that the leaves are now changing colour because of the season change and so the leaves will eventually fall. This will have an effect on the reader because they will be able to imagine the scene and what mood it is trying to make you feel. However…further on in that paragraph it says what Arthur Kipps imagined it would have been like.
A picture perfect beauty. Much like Ansel, nature is therapeutic to me. When I am in a foul mood the best thing for me to do is to go to the river, lake, park or just take a walk, taking in the natural beauty that surrounds me and just breathe. It calms me down and makes me feel better. Although I would not have agreed with this statement ten years ago.
The eyes that give him the precious vision he has of nature. He describes nature as “feminine” which invokes that he appreciates nature and that he sees nature with gentleness and value. Also in the rising action of the story the hotelkeeper, who warns him to not go out at night, at the door is blind in one eye. This is interesting because it forebode the climactic event of the vignette. During his long walk, he felt “safe and free” in the nature that encompassed him.
What A Wonderful World Victoria Byrd George David Weiss and Bob Thiele’s What A Wonderful World is a song that uses key poetic devices such as rhyme, hyperbole, imagery, metaphor, and figurative language to explain the diversity of our beautiful world. This song is about a man who observes all forms of life around him. The song is actually about the things that make the world wonderful; the beauty in nature and the people we love. The message of this song is beauty within the world and accepting everyone as they are. The rhyme in this song shows the artist’s meaning and understanding of the literary device by being able to use them properly and fluently throughout the song.
For example, “staring motionlessly toward the Gulf” (621), just like the couple. The uniqueness of the cranes is observed when they are compared to other birds. The author states, “They towered above the bobbing egrets and scurrying plovers” (621). This description of the cranes symbolizes the uniqueness of the couple’s relationship, filled with love and lasting forever into the sunset beyond their death. The couple in the writing is able to remain humorous and show their love to each other.
In addition, Steinbeck suggests that the clearing is full of sunlight: 'The water is warm too, for it slipped twinkling over the yellow sands.' Yellow, in this context, is calming because the words 'warm' and 'twinkling' are used before it. Steinbeck also uses alliteration to create a calm and peaceful atmosphere: 'south of Soledad, the Salinas River.' The repetition on the soft's' sound is calming and subtle. Steinbeck repeats this technique: 'the water is warm too.'
These are all things that we associate with the spring season. The poem has great word choice and uses very descriptive words such as “red buds”, “beautiful orange twilight” and “jade powder”. These are all phrases that paint vivid pictures in the reader’s mind. For example, using the word jade is much more descriptive than just saying green. The excellent word choice of this poem also contributes to the amazing imagery that the author uses.
Living in a small town I learned to appreciate nature and the beauty of my surroundings. I sat on the porch every day inhaling the freshness of the air, while listening to the sweet sounds of birds chirping and the breeze whistling making music to my ears. I overlooked the different types of trees, plants and flowers with their vibrant color surrounding the yard and alongside the roads looking like a painting on a canvas. The most captivated sight to my eyes is when I witnessed the sunrise and sunset on the lake opposite from the house the colors varied from yellow, red and orange. The cost of living is cheaper in small towns.
