Getting ideas from pictures

getting ideas from pictures
If you look at a picture and then attempt to tell someone else what you see, you will express ideas gained by experience. A picture may, however, cause a very different set of ideas to arise. Look at this picture. Can you imagine the circumstances that preceded the situation shown by the picture? Or again, can you not begin with that situation and imagine what would be done next? If you write out either of the series of events, the story, though suggested by the picture, will be composed of ideas furnished by your imagination.
