Image defined with og:image not showing on Pinterest

I am developing a website that has Pinterest share links on it. A link is something like:

http://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=http://example.com/i293

The og:image meta tag defined in the header is:

<meta property="og:image" content="photo.jpg"/>

Can anybody tell me why the image is not displayed when sharing on Pinterest?

og:image meta tag is working fine with Facebook.

From the Pinterest Developer Reference it looks like Open Graph's og:image tag is supported as an optional array for Articles and Products. It is not support for Places, Movies, or Recipes.

Is it possible you are not setting your og:type to article or product? Also, if you don't set og:type, it will default to website.
