Why has this photo had over 200,000 views?

I have posted photos and reviews as a local guide for a little over a year. At first, my photos got maybe a couple of hundred views (if I was lucky). Then we went on holiday to Orlando, in the USA, and the I posted this photo which I took at Universal Studios Orlando FL. Within a month it had over 200,000 views and I have no idea why. There are no hashtags and a very brief description. None of the other photos of Universal got anywhere near as many views. Is there something happening that I am not aware of? I’d really appreciate it if someone in the local guide community could help to shed some light on this?

Interesting observation. It is hard to tell what gives impetus to some photos so that they “skyrocket” in terms of views. Glad I am not the only one who has wondered about it :slight_smile:

Good on you, Mate for the massive views!

Thank you. I would genuinely like to know why. I think it is far from the best photo I have ever taken. I was hoping that someone from Google or another local guide who has had a similar experience could shed some light on this for me.

Maybe that"s something we could ask about at Connect Live- why some photos are so much more popular than others. Did you apply to go?

@marcorp It’s strange- isn’t it? When some photos get so many views and others so few. I find it really interesting.
