A practical checklist

  1. Choose the relevant field and actual observation date.
  2. Write the direction, landmark, and subject in notes.
  3. Explain whether the image shows a small patch, an edge, or a broader inspected area.
Illustrative recordA worked example

Scouting · July 12. Notes: “Photo faces north from the south gate; shows thin strip along entrance, not the full field.” The attachment has a recognizable place in the field history.

What to avoid

Do not expect the image to establish the field location by itself. My Farm Assistant re-encodes photos without retaining original location metadata.
