× More specifically, when I going to the travel I capture some scenic scenic scen.
✓ More specifically, when I travel I capture some scenic views.
The phrase 'when I going to the travel' is ungrammatical because 'going' requires an auxiliary (am/is/are) for present continuous or should be replaced by the simple verb 'travel' for habitual action. Also 'the travel' is incorrect; 'travel' as a verb does not need 'the'. Repeating 'scenic' and 'scen' is an error; use 'scenic views'. Suggestion: use simple present 'when I travel' for habitual actions and a correct noun 'views'.
× Actually pretty much both, but mostly I guess enjoy.
✓ Actually I enjoy both, but mostly I prefer rural scenes.
The original fragment lacks a clear subject-verb-object structure and mixes phrases awkwardly. 'Mostly I guess enjoy' misorders words and uses 'guess' redundantly. To improve, use a clear subject and verb ('I enjoy') and a coherent contrast ('but mostly I prefer...').
× I prefer taking photos in rural areas. Is it very beautiful and also peaceful? Part of the reason?
✓ I prefer taking photos in rural areas because they are very beautiful and peaceful; that's part of the reason.
The sentence fragments 'Is it very beautiful and also peaceful?' and 'Part of the reason?' are not proper statements. Use adjectives 'beautiful' and 'peaceful' to describe 'areas' with correct verb 'are' and connect clauses using 'because' to explain reasons. Combine fragments into a single coherent sentence for clarity.
× Speaking for only myself, I enjoy capturing views in my country as it very beautiful and also it has interesting sorts of tourist attractions which I find really breathtaking views.
✓ Speaking for myself, I enjoy capturing views in my country because it is very beautiful and has many interesting tourist attractions, which I find really breathtaking.
Errors include missing verb 'is' after 'it' and awkward use of 'it has interesting sorts of tourist attractions' and redundant 'breathtaking views'. Replace 'speaking for only myself' with 'speaking for myself'. Use 'because' for explanation, include the verb 'is', simplify 'sorts of' to 'many', and avoid repeating 'views'.
