Nowadays almost everyone has become a photographer. The smartphones of today have made it possible. I click many selfies with my phone and keep deleting those which don’t turn out good. Actually I become very cautious in front of camera and the photographers usually don’t look natural. Here I would like to talk about a time when my sister clicked a photograph of me which has come out very nice and is my favorite pic of me. We went on vacation to visit my boyfriend together with my siblings. At that moment my sister took a photo of me. I was standing with my back turned watching the waterfall pointing at the sun with my finger. I was wearing my favorite gray skirt and I had curled my hair. At that moment my sister took a photo of me and the photo turned out so natural and beautiful that everyone was really impressed. My sisters and my boyfriend tried to recreate the same post over and over again trying to capture the exact same angel. We had such a fun day together. When we got back I enlarged the photo, had it framed and hung it on my wall. Every time I look at it it reminds me of the day we spent exploring. Thank you for watching.
