Answer:
The infinitives are beside each other, but one does not contain the other.
Explanation:
<em>Infinitives are the basic form of the verb without any articulation links it to the subject. The sentence provided here employs two infinitives "to try" and "to write" back to back and beside each other.

However, the infinitives are beside each other yet they do not contain each other as each is displaying its meaning clearly and effectively. Thus, the last option is correct.</em>

C is the only one because the speaker mentions postcards and pictures and fact that they do no justice for the scenery before him.
