Yo estaba tomando una foto del Morro en San Juan, cuando mi teléfono sonó.
Explanation:
Yo estaba tomando una foto del Morro en San Juan, cuando mi teléfono sonó. This means in English: I was taking a picture of San Juan's Morro when my mobile phone rang. The imperfect here is used to express that an action taking place in the past was interrupted by some other action. In this case, the telephone ringing interrupted the action of taking the photo. The action that interrupts goes in the preterite.
