Imagery

"Where The Sidewalk Ends" by Shel Silverstein contains various types of figurative language, including similes, metaphors, personification, and imagery. Similes are comparisons using "like" or "as," metaphors make direct comparisons without using those words, personification attributes human qualities to non-human entities, and imagery creates vivid mental images through descriptive language. Silverstein's use of these literary devices enhances the poetic and imaginative nature of the collection.

Nothing OK

An eye bouquet is a very desciptive explanation to your surrondings that you would explain to a vision impaired person.

A homophone for "hair" is "hare." Homophones are words that sound the same but have different meanings and spellings. In this case, "hair" refers to the strands that grow on the human body, while "hare" refers to a type of fast-running mammal similar to a rabbit.

Imagery in reading is using words to describe a picture in a story. Its a very popular poetic device, imagery helps the reader see what the author is talking about. Examples are: the sun is very bright and orange at 10 o clock. Or the grass is greener then it used to be now its in many shades of green and light blue. The author describes something to help the reader.

The phrase "harsh peppery assault of the dried berries" is an example of a metaphor. A metaphor is a figure of speech that directly compares two unrelated things by stating that one thing is another. In this case, the writer is comparing the intense flavor of the dried berries to a forceful physical attack, creating a vivid and descriptive image for the reader.

The Physics of a satellite is the same as Newton's Laws for the earth.

GM = rv2 = r3 w2 where M is the central mass the satellite is orbiting and r is the raadius and w the orbiting rate.

The imagery in "The Lady or the Tiger" includes the vivid descriptions of the ornate arena, the princess's emotions conveyed through her physical appearance, and the tension-filled scene of the condemned man facing the doors. The author uses visual details to create a vivid and suspenseful atmosphere for the reader.

To reflect the image of a large area, a convex mirror would be used. This mirror would normally be in the form of a spherical section, as the security mirrors in a store or mall. A full mirrored sphere could be used, but would not be as efficient.

In Greek mythology, Phoebus Phaethon is depicted as the son of the sun god Helios, who attempted to drive his father's sun chariot but lost control, resulting in disastrous consequences for Earth. The imagery surrounding Phaethon often includes fiery chariots, the sun's rays, and a sense of reckless ambition leading to downfall. It is a cautionary tale about the dangers of overreaching and the importance of humility.

This phenomenon could be attributed to an optical illusion or fleeting visual impression. It may be the result of your eyes' slight delay in processing information or the brain's tendency to fill in gaps in perception.

Guided imagery has roots in ancient healing practices in various cultures around the world, including in China and Egypt. It gained popularity in the Western world in the 20th century as a therapeutic technique for promoting relaxation and healing.

For nighttime remote sensing, thermal infrared imagery is often the best suited type of imagery. Thermal imagery detects heat radiation emitted by objects, allowing for the identification of temperature variations and heat sources even in low-light conditions. This makes it particularly useful for applications such as monitoring urban heat islands, evaluating energy use, and detecting fires.

Satellite imagery is used for various purposes such as mapping, monitoring environmental changes, land use planning, disaster response, agriculture monitoring, infrastructure development, and military intelligence gathering. It provides a valuable tool for observing the Earth's surface from a remote perspective.

Imagery is anything that creates a vivid picture in one's mind. By describing something using figurative language and description, you create imagery, whether it is in something you're saying, writing, or thinking.

Imagery makes any ordinary image better, or at least more able to be imagined by your audience. For example, the sentence, "the chair was in the corner" doesn't create much of a picture. It's boring and easily forgotten. However, if you were to embellish this image using imagery, the sentence could become something like, "the lonely chair slouched in the corner, its original deep burgondy color now a faded reddish mud."

Imagery makes any ordinary image come to life.

Imagery produced as a result of sensing electromagnetic radiation emitted or reflected from a given target surface in the infrared position of the electromagnetic spectrum. Used with satellites to watch weather patterns when there is no light to determaine where over shooting tops are forming in a storm.

Celestial imagery refers to any visual representation or symbol related to the sky, outer space, or celestial bodies such as stars, planets, moons, and galaxies. It often conveys a sense of awe, wonder, and vastness. Celestial imagery has been used in art, literature, and cultural expressions throughout history to evoke themes of spirituality, mystery, and the unknown.

Imagery is used in writing to create vivid mental pictures and sensory experiences for the readers, helping to evoke emotions and enhance the overall storytelling. It allows for a deeper connection between the reader and the text by appealing to their senses and imagination.

Imagery is the name given to the elements in a poem that spark off the senses. Despite "image" being a synonym for "picture", images need not be only visual; any of the five senses (sight, hearing, touch, taste, smell) can respond to what a poet writes. Examples of non-visual imagery can be found in Ken Smith's 'In Praise of Vodka', where he describes the drink as having "the taste of air, of wind on fields, / the wind through the long wet forest", and James Berry's 'Seashell', which puts the "ocean sighs" right in a listener's ear.

A poet could simply state, say, "I see a tree", but it is possible to conjure up much more specific images using techniques such as simile ("a tree like a spiky rocket"), metaphor ("a green cloud riding a pole") or synechdoche ("bare, black branches") - each of these suggests a different kind of tree. Techniques, such as these, that can be used to create powerful images are called figurative language, and can also include onomatopoeia, metonymy and personification.

One of the great pleasures of poetry is discovering a particularly powerful image; the Imagists of the early 20th century felt it was the most important aspect, so were devoted to finding strong images and presenting them in the clearest language possible. Of course, not every poem is an Imagist poem, but making images is something that nearly every poem in the Archive does.

An interesting contrast in imagery can be found by comparing Alison Croggon's 'The Elwood Organic Fruit and Vegetable Shop' with Allen Ginsberg's 'A Supermarket in California'; although both poets seem to like the shops they write about, Ginsberg's shop is full of hard, bright things, corralled into aisles, featuring neon, tins and freezers, while the organic shop is full of images of soft, natural things rubbing against one another in sunlight. Without it being said explicitly, the imagery makes it clear that the supermarket is big, boxy, and tidy, unlike the cosy Elwood's. This is partly done with the visual images that are drawn, and in part with Croggon's images that mix the senses (this is called synaesthesia), such as the strawberries with their "klaxons of sweetness" or the gardens with "well-groomed scents", having the way the imagery is made correspond with what the imagery shows.

Satellite images provide a wide coverage area, allowing for monitoring of large regions. They can be collected regularly to track changes over time, aiding in environmental monitoring, disaster response, urban planning, and agriculture. Additionally, satellite images are useful in remote or inaccessible areas where ground data collection is challenging.

The Landsat imagery system has a resolution of 30 meters for Visible and Near Infrared bands, and 15 meters for the panchromatic band. The latest Landsat mission (Landsat 8) has a spatial resolution ranging from 15 to 100 meters depending on the specific band.

Satellite imagery allows researchers to monitor changes in oceans, lakes, and rivers over large geographical areas and long periods of time. It provides valuable data on water quality, surface temperature, ice coverage, and coastal erosion, helping scientists study the dynamics of the hydrosphere and its interactions with the environment.

You can access current detailed satellite imagery from websites such as Google Earth, NASA Worldview, or commercial services like Maxar Technologies' DigitalGlobe or Planet Labs. These platforms offer high-quality satellite imagery for various purposes such as research, monitoring, and mapping.
