How do you take Live Photos?

Some of my new photos are "Live Photos" while others are not. Why? and what to do.

When you open the Camera, there is a circular icon in the middle of the top status bar next to HDR. You need to turn that on for Live Photos.

For future readers, all the above assumes Thomas has an iPhone 6S or iPhone 6S+, which are currently the only Apple devices capable of producing live photos.

Thanks! That was the answer I was looking for. Sorry about not stating what model iPhone I had. That was one of my senior moments.
