I saw this image on National Geographic’s site today. It’s of a market in Bruges, Belgium. I like the layers of this picture. Bicycles line the bottom of the image, while people dine outside in the back. In the center are blurry spots of cyclists riding by, which breaks the otherwise static look to the image nicely.

Your writing prompt: Describe the setting. Now pick where a character is in this scene and try describing it again, this time from that person’s perspective.

Enjoy!
