Essay describing scenery (example)
Living art - Yandang Mountain
Yandang Mountain is located in Yueqing City, Wenzhou, Zhejiang Province. It is known as "a famous mountain", and there is a saying that "if you don't visit Yandang, your life will be in vain". Yanhu Gang, which is more than 1040 meters above sea level, has a lake on the top of the hill. In the lake, there are lush reeds and dangled grass. Every autumn, wild geese fly here one after another, hence the name Yandang.
Since returning from Yandang Mountain, the strange peaks and rocks, secluded caves, waterfalls, clear streams, deep gorges and huge valleys, and cultural sites have often appeared in my mind, which often makes me quietly Thoughts and silent appreciation, I always feel that the entire Yandang Mountain is a "living" artistic masterpiece made by heaven.
The cascading arches, steep peaks, various shapes and endless changes in the Yandang Mountains are the masterpieces of this artistic bonsai. These peaks are so magical that they are almost "alive". . Entering Dalongqiu Scenic Area, standing on the bank of Jinxi River and looking into the depths of the valley, you can see a peak standing upright in the deep valley. The top of the peak is slightly separated, and the bottom of the peak is slowly joining together. From a distance, it looks like a giant "scissors", so Named "Scissor Peak". Following the mountain path around this peak to view the peak, it can be said that the scenery changes with every step. After watching "Scissors", we walked a hundred steps into the valley and stopped to view the peak. "Scissors" had turned into a lifelike "woodpecker". A hundred steps further from here, when you look up at the peak, you will see the graceful silhouette of the ancient beauty Queen Zhaojun when she left the fortress. After bidding farewell to "Zhaojun", we walked one step further and turned around to look at the peak. The original "Zhaojun" had now turned into a beautiful "peacock". Walking slowly on the winding mountain road around Scissor Peak, you can look up at the peak from time to time. The peak will constantly appear in shapes such as sails, sky pillars, bears, etc. It is really amazing that this peak is "alive" to such an extent. Scissor Peak changes during the day, while Lingfeng not only changes during the day, but the changes at night are more poetic and fascinating.
Lingfeng Peak in the daytime, a majestic peak stands in the valley. A huge gap stretches from the top to the bottom of the peak, dividing the peak into two, and there are small peaks on the left and right attached to it. , when viewed from a distance, looks like a pair of clasped palms, also known as Gassho Peak. There is a cave 113 meters high, 76 meters deep and 14 meters wide hidden between the two palms. Inside the cave is a thousand-year-old temple - Guanyin Temple, hence the name Guanyin Cave. The changes of Lingfeng at night are amazing. When you stare at Lingfeng Peak on a bright moonlit night, you will see a poetic picture under the hazy moonlight. The giant palm transformed into an affectionate couple; the Golden Rooster Peak transformed into "parents" who peeked into the air and became intimately attached; the Shuangshu Peak became a kind-hearted old woman, forming a family full of fun. The "flexibility" of Lingfeng night view is that it can be suitable for tourists of different statuses to enjoy. When a first-time lover looks at the mountain peak, the peak is like a pair of lovers having a tryst under the moon; when a soldier in armor looks at the peak, the peak is like a couple saying goodbye; when a loving couple looks at the peak, the peak is like a couple reunited after a long separation. The "flexibility" of this peak is so magical.
Not only the peaks of Yandang Mountain are "living", but the waterfalls are also "living" works of art. The representative one is Dalongqiu Waterfall. At the extreme end of the deep valley in the Dalongqiu Scenic Area, a giant peak that is one hundred feet high, like cast iron, lies between the two mountains, like a giant peak blocking the deep valley. The Dalongqiu Waterfall comes from this 3,000-foot cliff. The waterfall falls from the top and looks up from the bottom of the valley. The waterfall is like a giant dragon falling from the sky, which is spectacular. The "life" of Dalongqiu can change with the change of seasons, sunshine and rain. During the summer rainy season, Dalongqiu Waterfall is like an angry white dragon, carrying the roar of thunder and the brightness of lightning, piercing the clouds and mists, splitting the cold cliffs, roaring and swooping down, digging straight into the heart of the pool, in After churning in the pond, he rushed out of the dragon pond and headed straight for the creek. In the dry season of winter, Dalongqiu is like a changeable pearl, flying down from the clouds and mist, and turning into a gorgeous rainbow under the sunlight, hanging in the valley. In March of spring, Dalongqiu is like fine scattered beads, floating in the air, melodiously floating downwards, turning into a hazy cloud of smoke within a few feet of the exit, sometimes like a thin white gauze. The white gauze turns into light blue smoke as it falls. At this time, Dalongqiu Waterfall makes people unable to distinguish between water and clouds, smoke and fog. Da Longqiu is such a "living" and changeable dragon.
However, the reason why Yandang Mountain, a natural artistic masterpiece, is "living" is because, like other works of art, it requires people to use their thinking to imagine and feel. Only in people's thinking and feeling can it "live" and become a true work of art. Just like a green olive, one needs to chew it to taste it. Without the human sense, the mountains are still the same mountains, the water is still the same water, and the vegetation is still the original vegetation. Therefore, when visiting Yandang Mountain, you must go with "feeling".
Yandang Mountain is a "living" art masterpiece in my opinion.
The key points of landscape writing articles: 1. Observe carefully and grasp the characteristics of the scenery.
The first thing to do is to grasp the characteristics of timing. The scenery is naturally different in spring, summer, autumn and winter, in the four seasons of the year or in the morning, afternoon and evening.
Second, we must grasp the characteristics of the place. Articles describing scenes should specify the place.
The third is to grasp the characteristics of the scenery. Different scenic spots have different characteristics. For example, some are mainly mountain scenery, some are famous for their strange rocks, and some are famous for their rivers and lakes. You should grasp these different characteristics and write out the personality of the scenery.
2. Combine movement and stillness to describe the characteristics of the scenery.
In landscape composition, there is a difference between static and dynamic scenery. Natural scenery is always calm, but it is constantly moving and changing. When writing a scene, you should not only pay attention to the static scene, but also be good at seeing the dynamics in the scene, so that there is movement in the stillness, stillness in the movement, and a combination of movement and stillness. When describing, either write the static first and then the dynamic, or first write the dynamic and then the static, so that the characteristics of the static and dynamic scenery are harmoniously and perfectly presented in front of the readers. Only in this way can the characteristics of the scenery in the article be "alive".
3. Observe the scenery with emotion and express emotions through the scenery.
The composition of describing scenery is not about describing scenery for the sake of describing scenery. Its ultimate purpose is to express a human emotion. The key is to handle the relationship between "scenery" and "emotion" well. The most important thing is the fusion of scenery and emotion. Only when there is emotion in the scenery and scenery in the emotion can we achieve the state of inseparable harmony. In terms of methods, more rhetorical techniques such as metaphors and personification can be used to make the scenery have human characteristics and perfectly combine realism and imagination. Only when a beautiful article permeates the author's true feelings can it better express the center of the article and accurately express the author's feelings, so that readers can truly appreciate the beautiful scenery and the author's love for the scenery from the beautiful words in the text. .
In general, to write a good scene, you must grasp the characteristics of the scene. According to the characteristics of the scene, you should choose the method of describing the scene with some emphasis. When writing, you should develop rich associations and integrate yourself. true feelings. You should observe more and practice more, and write down the most beautiful scenery you see, so that readers will feel vivid and immersive.
