IELTS Speaking Sample Questions # Photograph

Describe a time when someone took a nice photograph of you. You should say :

  • when was it taken?
  • who took it?
  • what was happening?

also, explain, why did you like it?

SAMPLE ANSWER

Photographs are an important part of my life and I believe they do capture moments that help us cherish the memories in so much better ways. Although, I do not like clicking single photos, I remember one particular photo of mine.

We had went to Visakhapatnam on an office trip and were relaxing on the beach. It was during that period I had recently bought a DSLR camera for myself and was busy clicking photographs of everyone. After few places, we landed up in Yarada beach. It is one of the most beautiful rock beaches in Vishakapatnam.

We were chilling on the rocks sitting together when my eyes struck the ocean and I got lost in its beauty. It was a far fetching port and one could clearly see the rocks on one side and the blue sea on the other. At one point a ship was crossing the sea and I clicked a photograph. Later, I came to know that a colleague of mine clicked a photograph of me capturing the ship.

The photograph captures me in between the rocks and the sea looking at the far fetched sea. To me, it reflects the person I am. Carefree, lovable and far sighted. It shows my love for camera and ocean, making it one of my favorite pictures.
