What format is your Inspection Form in? I always use word (I'm more familiar with this package) and use a tabular format so that if you use a digital camera you can just insert relevant pic's where required.

Don't Managers make the strangest requests?

The Checklist I would use would be based on HSE Publication CIS 17.

It would be a somewhat hellish task to put a picture against each item on that list, but maybe a seperate picture of a scaffold showing all the significant elements would be of some use to the "uninitiated"?

I have to say that those involved in inspections should be competent. They shouldn't need pictures!

Agree with Ron.
Checklists and pics tend to give a "tunnel vision" approach. More relevently experienced individuals look at the wider picture and categorise relating to significance.

Look in the GE700 from the CITB, that has a few examples of inspection check lists.
