Freedom's Gaze
Uploaded: March 14, 2012
A heavily modified photo of the plaster model of the statue of Freedom that sits atop the US Capitol; I wanted a poster-like treatment,
but the "Posterize" filter in PS just didn't cut it. (Original in Discussion Thread.)
Exif: F Number: 6.3, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/30 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 400, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 56.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 7D

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
