How to "Take Photo"

This isn't a quest. I have a double arrow over my fleet and when I touch it, it says "take photo" - how to do it? Not a screenshot, I've done that. Is there another command for photo ops?

Check in the other world maps. Mine like that was in the new world and I couldn't fulfill it in the old.

Exactly what happened to me last night. Was in old world and all my ships had the arrow to take photo but couldn't. I just happened to be going to the new world to check on my Rum distillary and seen the arrows there as well and was able to take the photo

I had certain ships tell me to take photo, It was only once they reached a destination they were going to that I could actually activate the quest

Mine was an artisan in the New World, in the middle of the sea... I only that him because I saw the minimap icon in the middle of nowhere... still quite some bugs with quests and the user interface, sadly

Yeah, occasionally you'll see a bugged mission. I got one to find the lone rioter. First hint it was bugged was that the "lone rioter" icon was grey instead of a portrait; then spent 22 minutes looking for him. Got the same mission a few days later and I found him pretty fast, his portait wasn't missing. Not bad for initial release, still :)

I just had the same thing, multiple trade steamers with stars saying take photo when i hover over them but no quest. I then got a fire station photo quest and they all went away on the boats.
