L52-1 Topic: A good photo of yourself

Describe a photograph you have taken yourself which you particularly like. You should say:

What the picture show

when you took it

why you took it

And explain why you particularly like this photograph

Well, I haven't looked through my photo albums for a long time. The topic just reminds me of a very special photograph of me and my good friend.

We took that photo on 8th March-the International Women's Day when we were 18. We thought the age of 18 was very special: we were old enough to celebrate the women's day, we were grown-ups instead of silly kids. So we decided to do something to mark the day. At that time, we didn't have smart phones or cameras. Dressing our best clothes, we went to a photo studio near our school on that day. You can see us in this photo, both standing straightly like soldiers by a bottle of flower on a table.

I think the reason why I particularly like this photograph is because it represents a piece of precious memory. It told me what kind of person I was in the past.  Time will wipe many things from our memory. But photos can help us to recall the days before.

Capture memories

freeze moments
