Hmm. Yes, but aren't the best descriptions of real life made through someone else's eyes, their thoughts and feelings added to them? That alone would elevate them, no?

For instance, describing the evening sky as pink and purple or a stormy sky as dark and grey would be to describe them, but expressing the first as uplifting, calming, soothing, beautiful, exquisite, etc., or the latter as forbidding, frightening, menacing, reflective of the mood in the room, etc. would bring the reader into the story.

Make sense?
