Usually your command line shows something like "C:\Users\YourUserName>" when you open it. In order to use tesseract, you need to change the current directory to the folder where your image is. So in your case, enter "cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Tesseract-OCR" into the command line. Now tesseract will find the image, but probably it won't be able to create the output file due to lacking file permissions. So a good way to start is to copy the phototest.tif to C:\Users\YourUserName and run Tesseract there.
