Hello world!
Could you help me, please?
There is a tiny part of my essay, I am almost done with it, but I am not sure about a couple of sentences.
"Unfortunately I can't show you the photo which I am talking about, because it was lost many years ago, so I suggest you to use your imagination while reading the letter. Let us take a closer look!".
Are these sentences correct? I will be grateful for your kind help! Thank you!

One of my earliest essays in English
I have just found one of my earliest essays in English. As far as I remember it was written four or five years ago. Let us take a closer look!
"Today I am going to tell you a fascinating story of a picture which was taken by one of my friends last spring. As you can see in the picture I was sitting on Artem's shoulders and playing the guitar. We were standing on the edge of a cliff, but we weren't afraid of anything, because we were a little drunk. At the moment Oleg was recording us with his action camera, when someone suddenly exclaimed: "Look! What a breathtaking view!". Almost instantly Artem turned round even though I was still on his shoulders. It was an amusing and scaring moment at the same time, but I was playing the guitar without interruption".
Now I realize the essay was pretty simple, but it helped to extend my vocabulary and improve my English as well. Thank you for reading!

My story from the book "Built On Rock"
Today I would like to tell you how I fell in love with Scorpions' music. This story may not seem very original to you, but my inner voice is insisting on sharing it with the world. In 2004, when I turned 12, my father and I went to Samara. At that time, we had an old 1995 Mazda, which had 400,000 kilometres in mileage. There was no CD-player in it, only a cassette player. Yes, it was a real rocker's car!
When we arrived in Samara, my dad went out on some business and leſt me in the car. I was bored as hell and started rummaging in the glove box in search of something interesting. Finally I found an old shabby audio cassette. Its cover depicted two guys - a curly one with a cap on, holding a microphone, and the other with a red electric guitar. I rewound it to the beginning with a pencil and inserted the cassette into the player.
The first song was "Wind of Change", the second one - "Are You The One", and the next - "You and I". I was incredibly impressed by the music flowing from the dusty speakers. Funnily enough, music hadn't played a big role in my life before that day. Of course, I had listened to something, but I hadn't had a favourite band or a favourite genre.
All the way from Samara to Ulyanovsk I was listening to the cassette with twenty songs on it. And when we returned, I took it home to listen to it in my Panasonic player, big and ugly, but with a fairly good sound. Later I found some more Scorpions cassettes. And when the Internet appeared, I had more opportunities to broaden my knowledge about the band. This is how I came to know Klaus, Rudy, Matthias, James and Pawel.
Thank you for making music a part of my life!

Which sentence is correct?
Hello, world! Could you help me, please?
Here are three sentences. Which is the best one?
1. Today I would like to tell you how I came to love Scorpions' music.
2. Today I would like to tell you how I fell in love with Scorpions' music.
3. Today I would like to tell you how I came to love/fell in love with Scorpions music.

Thank you for help!

"Today I am going to tell you a fascinating story of a picture which was taken by one of my friends last spring. As you can see in the picture I was sitting on Artem's shoulders and playing the guitar. Apart from that, we were standing on the edge of a cliff, but we weren't afraid of anything, because of traditional Czech beer. Oleg was recording us with his action camera, when someone exclaimed: "Look! What a breathtaking view!". Almost instantly Artem turned round even though I was still on his shoulders. It was a scary and amusing moment at the same time, but I kept playing the guitar without interruption".
Now I realize the essay was pretty simple, but it helped to extend my vocabulary and improve my English as well. Besides, nowadays I don't drink alcohol at all and, moreover, I always try to convince people to give up drinking and start doing something useful for their health. Thank you for reading!

Which tense should I use in the sentence?
Hello world! Could you help me, please?
I am going to describe a moment in the past and I want to say that one of my friends was shooting us with his Go Pro camera. I mean he didn't take a photo, he was shooting a video. Should I use the verb "shoot" in Past Continuous, because it was a process in the past, or it is more appropriate to use Past Simple in this case?
I have three options for expressing my thought. Which one is correct?
1. My friend was shooting us with his Go Pro camera.
2. My friend was taking a picture of us with his Go Pro camera.
3. My friend shot us with his Go Pro camera (As far as I am concerned the third one is not correct, because Past Simple is about regular actions in the past, but I want to tell about the moment).
Is it OK to say "shoot with his Go Pro camera"? I am not sure about the preposition "with".
Thanks a lot for your kind help!

The English Gauntlet
Hello world!
I don't usually like talking a lot about the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but today I made a decision to compare my tricky path in English to the Thanos’ way in Infinity War. According to the plot the mad titan has to acquire the six Infinity Gems which are able to give lots of endless possibilities. Possessing any single Gem grants the user the ability to command whatever aspect of existence the Gem represents.
I suppose there are plenty of similarities between six levels of English which we have in the schools and six Gems in the movie. Every level like every Gem opens new opportunities for the user. When you acquire all of them, you will be able to snap your fingers and obtain a high-paying job. As for me I am going to be awarded an A in an advanced General English course in three months. So I have already got five Infinity Gems, but the best is yet to come!
Thank you for reading!
