How to Describe a Picture in 4 Steps
The photo or picture being described shows a scene captured by the photographer. It may be in black-and-white or coloured and was taken by the photographer at a specific location.
Step 1: What is Where?
Begin by describing the picture's background and foreground. You can mention what is in the middle or centre of the picture. For instance, you can say, "In the foreground, there is a tree, and in the background, there is a mountain range. In the middle of the picture, there is a river."
Step 2: Who is Doing What?
Describe the people in the picture or what is happening in the scene. Use the present progressive tense to describe the actions taking place. For example, "A man is walking his dog along the riverbank."
Step 3: What I Think About the Picture
Share your thoughts and feelings about the picture. You can say, "It seems as if the man and his dog are enjoying a peaceful walk in nature. The atmosphere is serene and calming."
You can also mention any symbols or meanings that you think the picture represents. For example, "The tree in the foreground might be a symbol of growth and strength."
Step 4: Conclusion
Conclude by stating whether you like or dislike the picture and why. You can say, "I like this picture because it reminds me of the beauty of nature and the importance of taking a break from the hustle and bustle of daily life."
