This is effective because it describes what it's like on the beach.]]> 2017-11-22 12:28:19 UTC https://padlet.com/nwebster2/describe9L/wish/209424846 https://padlet.com/nwebster2/describe9L/wish/209424854 A Canvas of fire was spread across the horizon.🌅

This is effective as it is a metaphor so it allows the writer to describe something without actually deascribing the object allowing the reader to pain a picture in there mind. ]]> 2017-11-22 12:28:22 UTC https://padlet.com/nwebster2/describe9L/wish/209424854 https://padlet.com/nwebster2/describe9L/wish/209424861 The sun was setting for a well earnt rest beaming colours in to the sky.

This is effective because it shows how beautiful the sea is and it paints a picture for the reader .]]> 2017-11-22 12:28:46 UTC https://padlet.com/nwebster2/describe9L/wish/209424966 https://padlet.com/nwebster2/describe9L/wish/209424997 Different languages behind me from the cafe full of tourists, the beach though was as quiet as a pin dropping to the ground. To my right and left many more clouds appeared, evening time rose to a start and the sun started to set..... 

This is effective beacause it does not suggest what is going to happen in the evening and therefore leaves the reader on suspense as to what is going to happen next. ]]> 2017-11-22 12:28:54 UTC https://padlet.com/nwebster2/describe9L/wish/209424997 https://padlet.com/nwebster2/describe9L/wish/209425001 The simile "the beach was so quiet it was as lovely as a Sunday delight" this compares the beach to be hot and a lovely place to have ice cream

This effective because it shows how the person is confident and it shows how he is trying his hardest to be like a real diver.]]> 2017-11-22 12:29:23 UTC https://padlet.com/nwebster2/describe9L/wish/209425092 elizabethmwhite2003 https://padlet.com/nwebster2/describe9L/wish/209425100 You could hear the gentle waves tapping the shore

It's affective as it compares the sea to what a person can do (personification)]]> 2017-11-22 12:29:24 UTC https://padlet.com/nwebster2/describe9L/wish/209425100 https://padlet.com/nwebster2/describe9L/wish/209425264 I stare off into the marshmallow clouds listening to the soothing sound of the whispering wind and the galloping waves.

The techniques used are zoomorphism when i say galloping waves. Another technique is personification when I refer to the wind as whispering like a person.]]> 2017-11-22 12:29:58 UTC https://padlet.com/nwebster2/describe9L/wish/209425264 https://padlet.com/nwebster2/describe9L/wish/209425362 "Soft sand"
