I would never post a photo taken with a phone unless it was when out fishing. For that, and other reasons, I'm pretty sure I'm safe.

For those that are really worried about what their photo metadata may reveal.

Yes I'm convinced you infividually are Safe I thought it was worth a mention for general information and just out of interest , I believe flickr allows you to leave the exif in whether or not it warns you I have no idea.

sam vimes;1301394 It doesn't even need to be anything as clever as GPS tagging that gives the game away said:
Back in the '70's & '80's certain 'specialist' anglers used to ask me to look at fish photographs and identify the plants and tell them where they would grow inorder to track down locations.
Even the smallest detail can be used IF you are determined enough.

A forum member once uploaded a photograph onto FM and in his file was a detailed map with all the 'best swims' clearly marked and even where to park safely.

Its good advice to disable your GPS on a phone or camera to avoid future problems.

I am totally agree with you. You are 100% good here that flickr allows you to leave the exif in whether or not it warns you I have no idea.
