We are now ready to take on the task of capturing a photo. This will involve the following tasks:
Adding new user interface widgets to initiate capturing a photo and displaying it
Building a photo intent to navigate to an external camera app to capture a photo
Processing the results of the photo intent and displaying a photo once it is successfully captured
The following sections describe the details of each step.

The ImageButton widget can be added adjacent to the location and map buttons, and the ImageView element can be placed as the first widget above the Name field.
The following list shows the definition of the ImageView, which should be placed inside the LinearLayout before the POI name text field...
