Just write captions as you go if you want to spread them out. I always put them underneath because that's what makes sense to me. A return might work but I haven't tried it
That's an amazing flight photo with the insect.
My son spotted an Australian Hobby on the discus cage at the local oval the other day, but I didn't have my camera

thanks for all the nice comments and help everyone. i didn't even realise the wattlebird was about to gobble up the insect until afterwards when i looked at them. i was originally trying to highlight the beautiful orangy colour under its wings. but oh well, sometimes things turn out better than you expected!

Cheers, Owen.

"how do you get spaces between the photos???"

If you press ENTER more than once between paragraphs you will get gaps between lines.

Actually, it seems to only work if you press ENTER exactly twice.

Like this.

Not 3 times like this.

...or 4 times like this. (?)

It would be really handy (and I would not sit here wasting people's time) if we could edit our posts!

3 is the magic number of times to press ENTER.

Great first shot of the Wattlebird Owen1. In fact they are all really good photos, but the wattlebird getting the insect tells a story as well

I've succumbed to the birding bug!

Great shots Owen1. Love the wattlebird .I have never thought about the spaces, I just hit return and they just happen and then usually I add a caption as well after the photo code or return and then do it
