Error Correction in Visual Imagery

The dawn broke with a burst of vibrant gold, painting the sky with a canvas of fiery reds and deep purples. Shadows stretched long across the landscape, creating a stark contrast against the bright foreground. The trees stood silhouetted, their branches like jagged claws reaching into the grey morning. The river shimmered, reflecting the colours of the breaking light like a mirror of molten silver. A flock of birds soared overhead, their wings slicing through the air like sharp blades. The city skyline in the distance was blurred, the buildings soft and hazy in the early light. The fields were painted with patches of emerald green and gold, a peaceful scene of rural tranquillity.
