Others have already said all this, but I'll offer what I can.
Firstly the photon doesn't have a point of view, it's not possible to describe spacetime/the universe in terms of a coordinate system at rest with respect to the photon, because nothing can be at rest with respect to the photon.
If you attempt to, you'll see that the photon views all events along its path as simultaneous and coterminous, so its point of view can't be used to describe anything.
As other has mentioned the wave behaviour of the photon is its probability wave, known as the wave-function. The values of this wave are complex, you can think of them as a little 2D arrow at every point. The square of the length of this arrow is the probability to find the photon at that point. This wave of probabilities can evolve and change.
