1. Do you like to take photographs? Why?

If it were 3 to 4 years ago the answer would be a big no. But now it has

become one of my hobbies and I’m actually thinking of learning more about it. I

had no idea what I can do with my iPhone until I learned to make use of its

wonderful camera as well as some miracle apps. Unlike some people, I indeed want

my photos to look unique, lively and a little bit professional.

Vocabulary

To make use of (v) to use someone or something for a particular purpose,

especially one that brings a benefit to you

2. Do you prefer to take photos yourself or to have other people take your

photos? Why?

It would be way more comfortable taking photos myself, as I can see

crystal-clear how ridiculous my face expression looks like or if there’s

something on my hair or stuck between my teeth. And in case it’s a scenery

photo, I can apply the techniques I’ve learned to produce stunning photos.

Vocabulary

Crystal-clear (adj) absolutely clear

3. How long have you liked taking photographs?

Just recently. As a final year student, I no longer can spend hours on

drawing, reading or singing. Only photography which is way more instant suits me

now to document my life. And as I enjoy my life on this campus, for example the

road I walk to school everyday, the sunset, the rainbow, the trees, photography

is the best way to store my memories.

Vocabulary

Document one’s life (expression) record the detail of one’s life

4. In what situations do you take photographs?

As I’ve mentioned, I snap a photo of anything that catches my eyes when I’m

in a good mood. So I take photos when my friends and I hang out or when I

participate in social activities of the university and meet amazing people.

However, when it comes to practicing for professional photography, I prefer

taking photos of scenery and foods.

Vocabulary

In a good mood (idiom) a cheerful, well-disposed state of mind

When it comes to Sth/V-ing (adv) as for something; speaking about

something

5. What kind of photos do you like to take? Why?

Food and scenery are definitely my inspiration. I just can’t sit still when

beautiful breakfasts and stunning landscape keep appearing on my Instagram

everyday. What is more, it is my natural instinct that helps me to go find the

simple uniqueness of my university, namely the sunset, the lake, the trees and

flowers and show people how beautiful my university is. However, I’m not good at

taking photos of people so activities or street-life is not my style.

Vocabulary

Sit still (idiom) to remain seated

Natural instinct (collocation) the way people or animals naturally react or

behave, without having to think or learn

6. How (why) did you become interested in photography?

The situation was quite all of a sudden. I posted some scenery photos I took

on the spur of the moment on Instagram and received lots of compliments, even

from those whom I’m not following. Then I realized I should develop this skill,

you know, should take it seriously and keep up the good work. And the more I

learn about it, the more passionate I become.

Vocabulary

On the spur of the moment (idiom) do without planning, suddenly

All of a sudden (idiom) suddenly

To keep up the good work (phrase) used to encourage SO for continuing what

they are doing well

7. How often do you take photographs?

Not too often I must say. Since I really don’t like posting boring photos

with the same object all the time, so timing is everything. I believe my guts

will know exactly when and how I should flick to produce high-quality

photos.

Vocabulary

Guts (n) to be used in reference to a feeling or reaction based on an

instinctive emotional response rather than considered thought.

8. Do you prefer to take pictures of people or of scenery?

I think I’m gonna go for taking scenery photos. As a beginner, the knowledge

of human facial expression, the part that needs focus, the harmonization between

them and their surroundings are a bit too advanced for me. I can’t really make

the person in my photo become lively as I do with the scenery. Besides, looking

at the beauty of nature and capturing it is kind of mind-purifying to me and is

a good way to escape from the artificial world. So yeah, scenery is safer and

more enjoyable.

Vocabulary

Mind-purifying (adj) make your mind naturally pure, free from negative

thoughts

9. Who do you take photos of?

Although I’m not good at taking photos of people, I do take selfies with new

friends whom I meet when I participate in social activities. To me it’s more

like a reminder or something to look back, reminding me that yeah, this time

last year I went out, I met amazing people and had lots of fun.

Vocabulary

To look back (v) to think about a time or event in the past

10. How do you keep your photos?

Printing the photos out, making an album or sticking them on the wall for

decoration sound so common and also interesting. But I don’t think photos are

worth that much time and budget, unless what I captured is apparently important

to me, otherwise I only keep them in my iPhone.

11. Do you keep your photographs on your computer?

I don’t think I need to do so. Firstly, because my memory is somewhat similar

to goldfish memory, storing in different devices would drive me crazy. Plus, my

iPhone has large memory storage so I think I won’t need computer for

storage.

Vocabulary

Goldfish memory (n) SO who quickly forgets things

12. Are there any photos on the walls of your house?

Since my parents love decorating our house, putting photos nicely on the

walls of my house is an essential part of their decoration style. Some photos go

with frame or plastic cover, some are stuck directly onto the wall in

heart-shaped. However, it’s quite ridiculous for me to see myself grinning

everywhere in the house so I told them to let me decorate my room on my own.

Vocabulary

To see one’s-self doing Sth (n) to have an eye on SO doing Sth

On my own (adv) do Sth alone

13. Do you frame (or have you framed) any of your photos?

Although I don’t usually print my photos out, I think I would store some

photos of me with my high school friends or me with my family. And framing helps

preventing scratching and is good for long-term storage, so this is probably a

good alternative beside albums.

14. Do you prefer to send postcards to people or to send photos that you took

yourself? (Why?)

Firstly, the postcards are made of thicker paper, which makes it way more

convenient for long-term storage as well as decoration. Secondly, the process of

sending and receiving postcards appeared to be simpler and faster compared to

photos. For those reasons I think I probably go with sending postcards.
