Ielts Speaking Model: A Photo - Part 2

You Should Say
Where the photo was taken
Who took the photo
What can be seen from the photo
And explain why you like this photo
Like most people in the world I have many memorable photos but I guess an interesting one would probably be of me and an Egyptian at the Shanghai world expo.
Well it’s actually a funny story. During the 2010 World Expo there were many exhibitions with very long lines and in fact the first time I went I waited for 8 hours. So the second time I decided to visit exhibitions that have shorter lines and the Egyptian was one of them – I only had to wait for 10 minutes.
When I got to the front of the Egyptian exhibition one of the workers pulled me to the side and forced me to take a photo with him. I was a little scared at the time but it’s quite interesting thinking back. So anyways, my mum took a photo of us and he let me go.
When I got back to my hometown I printed this photo and now it’s in one of my photo albums. I’m fond of this photo because this was the first time I have ever taken a photo with a foreigner and with such a strange experience as well.
