Hi Justin,

It's great to see this in CF8, but unfortunately it doesn't provide all the
metadata I would need,

If you have ever used Photoshop or Lightroom, you can edit the File Info.
This means the photog can add a lot of information to the image, such as
Description, keywords, copyright, etc.  When the file is uploaded to Flickr,
for example, this information is read and it saves any need to rekey.  It
means where ever the image lands up, this information doesn't get detached.

Many thanks,

Jenny

ColdFusion 8 (sorry Jenny, this won't help you on CF7) introduced a function
specifically to extract EXIF data called ImageGetEXIFMetaData().  You
basically read in a JPEG image and pass it to the function and it returns a
structure of whatever it can extract.  Pete Freitag has a blog post with an
example at http://www.petefreitag.com/item/657.cfm.
