Correct Answer: D
Choice D is the best answer. The passage describes imagery that "transported viewers" and captured "emotional atmospheres." "Suggestive" means evoking feelings or ideas, fitting this power to create emotional impressions.
Choice A is incorrect because "forgettable" contradicts praised effectiveness. Choice B is incorrect because "technical" doesn't convey emotional power. Choice C is incorrect because "colorless" contradicts vivid imagery.
