Don't be paranoid....the liklihood that someone is searching out pictures of your antiques by latitude and longitudinal corodinates to rob you is slim to none. and if you do have a picture of some mummy you just discovered, best not to post a picture on social media.

It depends on your camera and the capabilities of your camera. If it has GPS capabilities then the coordinates at which the picture was taken may be included in the EXIF Metadata.

On my Olympus camera the only thing that the EXIF page contains is camera information. The date and time the picture was take are usually included. Camera name, manufacture, model are included. There will be all types of information on the picture focal length, aperture, exposure, plus information on the image like number of pixel, etc.

There is another area of the picture that may contain information, that is the IPTC area, which appears to be an auxiliary page to the EXIF date. To my knowledge is contains only user added data.

Thing to do is open the EXIF and IPTC information and see if there is any thing that you do not want published.

There is another thing that must be consider with pictures. That is the content of the pictures not only in the foreground but back ground. As an example a friend was staying at a very fancy room while traveling with his company. He took a shower and then with out doing "anything" took pictures from various points around the room, and its view. When he got home he was looking at the pictures and was shocked, as he view the image in the mirror in one picture, that he did not notice when taking the pictures.

krnuttle, thank you for your response. I have a canon rebel T6. Your answer made me feel a lot better. So there's nothing in this pic that gives away its geographic location, right?

sam - there are people who could figure out where your photo is. I followed some on twitter and it was fascinating how little info an image needs for people to figure out where it was taken. As for electronic data embedded, I've no clue!

People who have been to that garden seeing that picture would know the geographic location. Some people are very visual and even the color of the sky they can tell where a picture was taken and at what time of the day. Also remember that satellites do mapping for all kinds of reasons so little can not be seen.

sam, I'd have to agree w/some of the above remarks. I doubt anyone would be parsing Garden Web pic-data to rob houses. Google Earth/Street-View can already, in many cases practically look into your windows...
