4 STEPS YOU SHOULD FOLLOW:

2. Describe who and what you can see more in detail. Choose the main aspects of the people or place you want to describe: clothes, age, objects, etc. YOU DON’T HAVE TO DESCRIBE TOO MUCH.
3. WHAT’s the person/peple doing? (Describe actions)
4. FINALLY, How do the people probably feel? Why?
