iOS 8 selecting multiple photos to send

[cam254]

Now when I try to use the photo app to select multiple photos to upload to an email by hitting the send-to button at the lower left, suddenly all the photos are thumbnails at the top and a host of options fill the screen where the full-sized image used to be. Without full size previews I can't tell what photos in a series are really the better ones. Is there a way in iOS 8.1.1 to flip through your photos full screen and only select a few? It seems like this worked before but now this function has been removed? Thanks

iPhone 6, iOS 8.1.1
