  <title>Properties</title>
<p>
Properties are associated with an image or an album. Attributes like title, source, date modified and type are associated with an album. Image attributes have much precise detailed information like the camera used, exposure, focal length, aperture and flash. Properties can only be viewed for an individual album or photo and cannot be viewed for a selected set of albums or photos.
