Write 3 paragraphs describing in detail three photos of places you have visited or pictures of places that you would like to be able to visit.  You will use imagery (the 5 senses) and figurative language (simile, metaphor, hyperbole, etc.).  

Ideas: For each photo write a paragraph describing the photo in such a way that the reader should almost be able to put themselves into the photo. Use as many sensory details as possible (sight, smell, taste, texture, and sound)

Organization: Each paragraph should include a topic sentence that sets the scene briefly. The supporting sentences should create an overall tone (power, peace, loneliness etc.) while creating a picture.

Conventions: Title, proper punctuation and sentence structure. If the photos are not your own include the URL or source.

Example:

The eagle perched resolutely throughout the storm. Despite the thunder that seemed to rock the mountainside, the bird stayed still to guard her nest. As the sky darkened around the craggy tree on which her nest was silhouetted against the ever-thickening clouds, lightning struck. The bolt of energy seemed to almost form a circle of immeasurable force just feet from the nest. Shortly after that the rain pelted down mercilessly as the eagle turned to check her young.
