× I really like taking a picture from different views and scenery and it's one of my, actually, it's one of my hobbies.
✓ I really like taking pictures of different views and scenery; it's actually one of my hobbies.
The verb 'like' is correctly followed by a gerund, but 'a picture' should be plural 'pictures' to match 'different views'. Use 'of' not 'from' when describing photographing subjects. Also restructure to avoid repetition: place 'actually' before 'one of my hobbies' and join clauses with a semicolon for clarity.
× It really makes me feel, uh, relaxed and release, uh, stress.
✓ It really makes me feel relaxed and release stress.
Use parallel verb forms: 'feel relaxed' is correct; 'release stress' is acceptable but more natural is 'relieve stress.' Alternatively use 'helps me relax and relieve stress.' Remove filler pauses.
× I really like photographing of nature, uh, because the colors of different, uh, for example, uh, grasses and uh, the color of soil, the color of grasses.
✓ I really like photographing nature because of the different colors, for example of grass and soil.
Do not use 'photographing of nature' — use 'photographing nature.' 'Grasses' is usually 'grass' in this context. Avoid redundant repetition 'the color of grasses' and 'the color of soil'; combine into 'colors of grass and soil.'
× I prefer different views of the other country because I'm the person that's like, uh, visiting different places and it's so fascinating for me to, uh, travel to other country and see their different views.
✓ I prefer the views of other countries because I like visiting different places, and it's so fascinating for me to travel to other countries and see their different views.
Use plural 'other countries' when speaking generally; use the definite article 'the views' or simply 'views of other countries.' 'Travel to other country' is incorrect — use 'travel to other countries.' Also remove filler 'that's like' and ensure pronoun agreement with plural 'countries' ('their').
