Both I and the creator (Lachlan Copeland) are seeing the licence as CC-BY-SA, but others are seeing it as CC-BY-NC.
Thes images were re-licensed at least two days ago, it would be good if the licensing information could be synced with greater urgency

which licence are you talking about? When I open that link the licence for the photos shows as CC BY-NC for me. But the licence for the observation itself shows as CC BY-SA

these are two separate licences. So when you say

Both I and the creator (Lachlan Copeland) are seeing the licence as CC-BY-SA, but others are seeing it as CC-BY-NC.

is it because different people are looking at difference licences? Can you post some screenshots to match mine above, to show what you’re seeing

Thanks for the screen shots. How does one change the licence on the photo. Lachlan believed he had changed the licence on the photo

under profile settings, there are 3 different dropdowns; it’s the middle one which is the photo one. Also keep in mind that you need to tick the checkbox to retrospectively apply the change to existing obs, otherwise it only applies to future uploads
