English Language paper 1 - Question 5 Help

I've just started trying to revise English, and I'm stuck on this Q5: . I just can't think of what to write about it, that it not too literal and would get a good grade. Any ideas on the type of things I could write about would be appreciated. Thanks

I always go for the story prompt as descriptions screw me over (I read books and they help me a lot in this instance).

My teachers always talked about the five senses when talking about descriptions. Furthermore, it's important that you write descriptions in third person because I think it gives you a better chance of exploring everything in the picture.

You could start from talking about the sky and zooming into the city and its details. I usually do this and try to incorporate as many of the senses as I can.

Best wishes.
