<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 578672 by <a href="/recipes/users/4187940/">Rutger Saalmink</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/chronological/">chronological</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/exif/">exif</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/image/">image</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/order/">order</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/photo/">photo</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/picture/">picture</a>). Revision 3. </p> <p>On some occasions/events, pictures will be taken by different camera's, mobile phones, etc. In order to sort these photos chronologically, it does not suffice using the file's date modified/created set by the OS. The following script obtains, from multiple sources, the pictures' taken date stored in the accompanying Exif data and outputs them all chronologically in a single directory.</p>
