Hell everyone,  
I’ve been doig a bit of hunting around, and haven’t found alot of  
information yet, but am wondering if anyone can tell me if they know  
of a way to read IPTC and/or EXIF information from images? What I  
eventually want to be able to do is to look at an images caption field  
(in the IPTC not a database ) by something like  
p = Image.find(xxxx)  
p.caption

Any ideas or directions you can point me in would be great… 😃

Thanks,  
Cam
