While playing around with Flickr yesterday, I found a cool little feature (well, cool for photo geeks like myself, anyway!). Any photo taken with a digital camera has a digital stamp that includes all kinds of information about the camera settings when the picture was taken, including the day and time, the shutter speed, aperture setting, and so forth. If you look at a photo on Flickr, there's a column on the right. Under "Additional Information" you can find out what kind of camera was used for the shot. Under this is a link for "More properties." Click on it, and you've got data up the wazoo. How cool is that? Probably overkill for the average person, but if you're an aspiring photographer, it's pretty fascinating. Kinda like peering into the toolbox of an artist.
