Well, I'm a person who likes being photographed, and usually, my cousin takes care of capturing those moments whenever we visit new places. Now, I'm going to describe one of my favorite photographs, which wasn't taken by my cousin, unfortunately. It was taken on the special day of my cousin's brother's wedding. The picture was taken accidentally by my brother, who isn't very good at taking pictures. And he doesn't like to take many because he thinks it's a waste of time, but somehow he clicked the picture of me at that moment. In the picture, my friend and I were wearing beautiful traditional outfits with colored powder, which is a tradition at Indian weddings. We were both wearing purple suits and our heads were uncovered. It was a random picture, and we looked alike. We were gossiping, and the function was over around 12 AM. My brother showed me the picture, and I was shocked and thrilled to see it. I loved it precisely because it was such a random shot, and he's not a very good photographer. He usually doesn't take many pictures at occasions, and I think almost the only picture he's clicked of mine, and I'm shocked to see how good that random picture turned out. Just because of this random shot, I like the picture, and it's my favorite picture among all my other pictures, as it's also the only picture with that friend - we didn't have many pictures together. All in all, I think we must take pictures and have some favorite pictures with us, as pictures are only the means to keep our memories alive.
