I agree with you each picture should bring some information, it unuseful 
to have 30 time the same picture.  I think that it's very useful to have 
many picture (and detailed one) of the same object. Picture ofen bring 
more information than a long text. Currently I have also a problem on 
how to incorporate those images in an article. Currently I m creating a 
gallery where I m putting all the images with a short comment on each 
picture. 
see for instance:
