How can I get full marks?

Keep it simple- il y a, c’est, ils sont.

Talk about what is actually in the photo, not colours, or what you think might be there or is not there.

There are always people in the photo (les gens)

There is nearly always a man (un homme)

There is nearly always a woman or children (une femme, des enfants)

They are always happy! (ils sont contents)

Il y a= there is
