Hi Brian. Sorry I only just spotted this. Metadata will only show if it's still embedded in your images when you upload. If you have processed the images before uploading there is a chance that it might have been stripped out. How are you processing your images?

Hi Tim, When I download my images from the camera they go straight into Lightroom and I export them from there.

That's strange. A standard Lightroom export should maintain all the exif data. If you open the JPEG in LR or PS do you still see the exif data then?

I shall have a look. It will be something I have done. PS & LR I am at amoeba level.

If you open the JPEG in LR or PS and the exif is not visible then it could be something in your export settings that has stripped it out. If it is visible, then it could be getting stripped when uploaded here, although it shouldn't be so I'd need to look into that further.

It is my mistake Tim, the metadata box while exporting was unticked i n Lightroom.

Glad you’ve worked it out Brian!
