EXIF data stripped and who fills up © and license fields in the IPTC code?
Hi Jeff,
I looked at the files to see the EXIF information. It's not always there or incomplete! How come? What are you doing to simple jpgs such that you lose this data? In the first picture it says 300mm lens and f2.8 but no shutter speed! With the last image, no such info at all; zero!
Also you have not added you © info and licensing statement to the IPTC code. Your pictures might one day be very valuable. It might seem a very long shot, but anyone of these players might end up as a great actress, politician or public figure and your sleeping pictures could someday make you a nice fee!
Also you might catch some rich company using one of your images in their advertising or as one guy discovered on, I believe, a bottle of Nestea foods: money in the bank! As your work gets even better, the chances of being ripped off are increased. So at least stake your claim by putting your stamp inside every picture file online. That way, people can't so easily claim that yours are in the public domain!
Nill,
Do you bother to add your © info or not?
