Extracting metadata from JPG's in C#

Hi all.
I'm working in C# and need to interrogate a JPEG to get it's metadata.
To test I created a jpg in photoshop and then used it's File Info
dialog to load up all kinds of metadata about the photograph like
author, keywords, jobname,
copywrite, yada yada yada. Now I want to get at that information from
C#.

I've been creating a System.Drawing. Bitmap object for my test jpg and
I do see 73 property items but the ids and value are all numeric. I
assume that maybe these are pointers to locations within the image
structure. Any advice or sample code to get at this data using
GDI+????

OR.... any 3rd party components that anyone would recomment for this?
TIA

A question on using the PIL library. If I take a jpg file then, say, resize it and save it somewhere else, all metadata that is part of the jpg file is lost. This is a pity: digital cameras routinely add metainformation, so does, for example, Photoshop. Is there any way of keeping this info in PIL? Alternatively, is there a simple image processing package that does it? Ivan

Right-click on a jpeg in XP click "summary" tab and there are metadata fields. My questions are: How can I extract this data for each jpeg? Is this exif data is it some proprietary MS format? I see it in my text editor... If I have hundreds of images is it possible to "program" this ie. loop and put data in a flat text file?
