This is a quick post just to let you know a thing related to my SuckRSS software. From now on, the “HTML generation” module will retrieve EXIF data and automatically add information on some of the camera settings (exposure, aperture, metering mode, gps position and altitude, etc) for ‘educational’ purposes.
I’ve reprocessed some of the past postings.
