You need to be able to accurately observe people and events around you if you hope to convey realistic descriptions to your readers.

In many cases, this is due to the writer omitting important details in his or her descriptions, which make the scene seem false. If you want your writing to seem real, pay attention to the real life around you so you can portray it accurately on the page.
