I would agree with you.
I feel as if an excessive amount of bud shots/ veg are not really useful, you just start to look at the same thing after a while.
I try to take pictures from an scientific approach, show off the entire set up and how its changed from week to week, individual plant shots to show growth from week to week,etc. I also like to take pics of stuff that interested me throughout the week that I would like to share AFTER the scientific pictures.
What you want to document is good for referencing and I would encourage more of that documentation throughout the community.
