Thank you Lisa for document species at such length. When you introduce a new species, it is basically fully described because you include all angles. I know it takes a lot of work to do this, and can't thank you enough for it. You set the example. Posted 6 years ago

  Awww, thank you so much! I often worry that I'm going overboard with all of the angles. I have the hardest time choosing which photos to upload, so I am glad to hear that you appreciate them all! Posted 6 years ago

    I really do! Do not worry about it, documenting several photos of the same species describes it better and makes the species record ever richer, educational and generally more useful. It also helps in identification towards others. All of this is supposed to happen, it's what the platform is for. Space really is no issue. The only thing asked is to not post tons of photos that are essentially duplicates or near-duplicates: exact same angle, composition, etc.
