Moving from general to specific: General information is useful; it let’s the reader know what you’re talking about. Specific information is useful; it offers necessary and persuasive details that give your argument credibility and rhetorical power.

It’s coolI like the way it looks The picture has a lot of interesting detail The picture shows how a place looked in the present and the past. The picture shows a color image of London in the present in the background, and a black and white image of London from 1921 in the center.

Your own opinions and arguments need to be specific too; explain in detail why you feel a certain way and add examples to make it more persuasive. Jack in the Box is nasty.
