Yes, what Guest said...my name from within a Canon camera does not show without having to resort to some kind of masking hocus-pocus...it ws probably your phone pictures. Traveller
Guest 25-Nov-2022 16:15
Probably more information on photos taken with your phone.

I'm curious about the source of that other metadata. Added to the photo file by my computer? DPP gives the options of embedding the ICC profile and removing shooting info. The latter doesn't seem helpful for these submissions.

Dave - for what it is worth, your name that you entered in your camera is not attached to the main EXIF that Pbase shows, but is in the other metadata attached to the photo. Pbase just picks that up when you upload a photo and enters it in the Name box. I have to always change mine when I upload a 90D photo. You can strip it out with all the EXIF (at least in Lightroom) when you create a smaller photo for uploading. I choose not to.
Most of us enter our name into the camera for copyright protection on a photo. It may slow someone down from stealing a photo you post, but it won't stop someone who is determined. It would be useful if you wanted to take someone to court.

Yes, my full name was the issue. I don't remember removing it from my camera (I entered it for that copyright thing) but see that pbase still has it, so I'm careful when adding my name during the image edit process. Thanks!

Dave

I remember now, Dave...on at least 2 occasions your actual name showed...both times I removed your last name, (which oddly, I can't remember now...lol) pretty quickly. It was suggested that you had your name stored in your camera maybe for copyright purposes....but you went into your camera and deleted it...I believe. Your Los Angeles Buddy, (too much information? I think not...lol) Traveller
Canon Image Challenge23-Nov-2022 02:35
Dave - the only personal info is what you put in the caption or comments yourself. The camera doesn't have much other than the EXIFs. I don't recall one that you might be referring to.
I do know that Paul and T and sometimes me share more personal stories. But that is our choice.

Geeze, I like all the 1's and 2's from the EXIF...(geo-taging may show a bit much, but very little can be learned from the EXIF, except that it is helpful for me and others to know your camera's shooting information)...and besides sometime you get a magical number as you did here:

11-Nov-2022 12:11:11

Now only if the Nov had shown its true 11.ness...pure magic.

I have a honest question for you. If the full exif is showing for you on the images then where is the confusion as to how I (we) were able to view the full date/time stamp on your image? Paul
Canon Image Challenge22-Nov-2022 03:23
No, I have the "full exif" button showing. But I get what you mean, and we're good.

I thought there was a challenge some months ago (maybe many) when information of a more personal nature was visible.

Not sure what browser your using but here is a screen capture of your image and this is how all photos show when I view them from any browser on any device or computer. Do you have the “hide exif” button switched off?

First line of what? I admit I’ve never attempted to view an image’s exif in pbase. Thanks for the education.

Dave
Canon Image Challenge21-Nov-2022 04:15
Take a look at virtually any photo entered and you will see in the very first line the date and time the photo was taken. Mine are the exception, not because I deliberately delete it but the software I use to resize strips it out. Sorry if I’ve made you uncomfortable, I’ll not do it again. Paul.
Canon Image Challenge21-Nov-2022 03:32
Dave, I don't think so.
All you really need to include is the date shot. The camera info is helpful for photographers who want to see how you shot it.

Jim

Am I surrendering too much information in my EXIF? I remember discussing this previously but don't recall what steps, if any, I should take.

There's a new crossing coming. I think it's a cable-stayed bridge but am not sure whether it will add miles to my trip relative to the route I take.

Dave

Sorry guys I openly admit I’m weird that way and promise I’m not a stalker, just curious and like to dig in and explore by nature.

Another example is last week the wife complained the toaster oven wasn’t working correctly, “must be a burnt out element buy a new one”. “Let me dig into it first” I said reassuringly to her. Took longer to open and reassemble than locate and repair the loose connection on the bimetal thermostat creating false heat. Clean and re crimp connections… Done! Paul

Paul is a great photo detective.
This is not the first time.

Jim

I determined the time of day from your EXIF then I noted a distinct difference in the engineering styles of the bridges and I used Google earth to determine your direction of travel using the differences in the bridges. I’m weird in that way, I try to breakdown locations in photos using visual clues. I really get a workout with some of the photos Traveller posts simply because I’ve been to the LA area numerous times and recognize some of the areas he shoots at.

Hope you had a wonderful visit with your mother. Lucky you are to still have her in your life. Both my parents and in-laws have been gone for 20+ years. Paul
Canon Image Challenge20-Nov-2022 01:15
How did you determine the time using Google, Paul? I was actually on my way to visit my mother. Mrs. Dave stayed home with our two (consistent with challenge theme) small dogs. Lunch was solo in Woodstock, Ontario.

Dave

I’m guessing he does since he’s in the restricted lane and with the help of Google li appears Dave’s crossing into Canada just after noon. Meeting the Mrs at a quaint little restaurant for lunch? Dave you’re such the romantic. Is my imagination is running wild or what! Paul
Guest 19-Nov-2022 14:56
Do you have a Nexus card?
Canon Image Challenge19-Nov-2022 03:42
The center lane is the restricted lane, for holders of expedited border crossing credentials. Otherwise, cars to the left and commercial vehicles to the right.

Dave
Canon Image Challenge19-Nov-2022 01:36
Oh wait I’ll bet that’s the US /Canadian border isn’t it! That explains the no cell usage. Customs wants no distractions while you sweat bullets as they search for contraband. Paul
Canon Image Challenge19-Nov-2022 01:20
Good thing you’re in the center lane since you just happen to be using your cellphone, sort of anyway. Do you know why they are restricting the outer lanes but not the center lane. Paul.
Canon Image Challenge18-Nov-2022 17:09
Thanks. Really just a snapshot. One I anticipated before crossing. Grateful to have light traffic.

Dave
Canon Image Challenge18-Nov-2022 14:36
Nicely seen, nicely captured.

You are the boss! This is a great find and it made me smile because it is so smart. T
