Frequently when a photo catches my interest, my first instinct is to check its EXIF to see what the exact metering info was. Unfortunately, about half of the images I check don't have their exif data intact. For those intentionally stripping the exif from their photo - anybody know why? Why keep it secret? Whats the problem?

For those who don't realize they are stripping the exif from the images - careful! In Photoshop, when you 'save for web', it strips the exif data.

And I'm also pretty unimpressed by very large watermarks, they're web resolution jpegs, its not like you are throwing your original data on here.
