Do not adjust your set
I found yesterday at work that images in recent blog entries wouldn’t show up. Everything else was served OK; seemed that they might be corrupted. But the images loaded correctly at home.
Last night I discovered the cause. The images were all exported from Lightroom with EXIF and all the other metadata. Some of the metadata was being blocked by the security filtering at work.
My recent picture of a bicycle pedal screw does not show up at work:
Here is the same photo, exported from Lightroom with the Minimize Embedded Metadata checkbox selected. This one does show up at work:
The ‘lightweight’ image still has minimal EXIF metadata, including the colour profile information.
