When you upload an image to the forum, the image file name is preserved and visible to everyone. If the file name itself reveals information you would rather not publicise, just change the file name before you upload it. I hope this is a helpful suggestion!
 
That's been used to get the Wezzit in UkCaving on a few occasions!!

Good suggestion though if uploading sensitive location.
 
Same can be said for IPTC/EXIF metadata in the images. Even mobile phone snaps store the approx GPS location if they can work it out.
