When you track down Gerudo Canyon Stable (you can find all TOTK stables in VideoGames.SI.com's dedicated guide) and clear out all the wooden boxes littering the place up, you'll trigger a two-part quest called A Picture for the Closed Stable

For the first picture, you need to find the exact spot to take the photo from, but the subject of your photo is at least marked on the map. For the second, you don't even get a map marker. Let's make it easier for you, eh? 

A Picture for the Closed Stable 1

Here's exactly where you need to stand to snap a photo of Spectacle Rock in Tears of the Kingdom.

Here's exactly where you need to stand to snap a photo of Spectacle Rock in Tears of the Kingdom.

For the first picture, the stable owner wants a photo of Spectacle Rock, which he says he's seen Rito flying over. This should be your first clue: you need a bird's-eye view. 

Head to the East Gerudo Sky Archipelago, which you can glide to from the nearest skyview tower (for all TOTK skyview tower locations, we have a guide for that, too). The sky island you want to reach has a shrine on it called Rakashog Shrine

If you look at the island on the map, you'll see the southwestern tip of the cross has a small smile-shaped island beneath it. Go to the tip of the cross and look down from there. You should see the mountain as the eyes and the sky island just below you as the mouth. Snap a photo and take it back to the stable.

Watch out for the dragon guarding the giant sword in Tears of the Kingdom.

For the next stable picture, you're tasked with taking a photo of a giant sword on a peak in the Gerudo Highlands. If you head north from the stable and into the frozen landscape above, you should eventually see a peak with a three-headed dragon on it in the distance. The sword is right next to the creature. 

Here's a map showing the exact location:

Take the snap from a distance if you don't want to be dragon dinner. 

Once you've handed in the two photos, you'll get two Pony Points and two Chilly Mushroom Risotto.
