In case you are wondering about all the extra data shown about the photos you upload ... this information is stored in the photos themselves by the camera. It's called "EXIF" (aka EXchangeable Image file Format), and is a standard used by camera manufacturers to store information about the photo.
Typically it contains camera information (make, model, lens, etc), settings when the photo was taken (eg exposure, aperture, shutter speed, focal length, etc), date and time taken, plus various other information the camera manufacturer thinks is useful.
The information is stored within the JPG file and is extracted by the gallery software when you upload. It was available to view in the old gallery, but it was kind of hidden so many people didn't even know it was there.
One day when I get a chance I might see if I can make this information searchable - might be interesting to see some stats on what types of cameras are the most used
If a photo doesn't show the EXIF information below it, that means the gallery software couldn't find any. Some older digital camera didn't store EXIF data, and some scanners also don't store it (you'd only get the scanner data anyway, not the camera data).
