Photo Recon missions

[mcsquared]

I'm having trouble completing the Photo Recon missions. I was told that you must travel to 8 nautical miles of the objective then, while submerged, lock on an enemy vessel in your periscope and press the menu bar button to take a photo. I have done all this, right now I have a "saved" game where I'm submerged about 10,500 years from a Japanese freighter and it is a bright sunny day. (No pictures at night???) No "menu bar comes" up and I am at a lost what to do next. Any help will be very appreciated.
