Lawrence: I owe you an apology: your comments were, and are, indeed there! 
The reason I made that previous comment was because I was in Gallery Admin. Mode, and that in that mode, by default, comments and descriptions are not shown
unless you go into a rather convoluted access procedure. 
When I accessed the Gallery as an 'ordinary member', your comments then became visible.
Warning!
follows.
Now I hate to sound like a moaner, but as its administrator, I find that the Gallery software (Piwigo) is easily the worst piece of image display software that I have ever used.
It is totally non-intuitive, the mouse control is unreliable & unpredictable and its photo and album management facilities are cumbersome at best, absolutely awful at worst. It is also very easy to accidentally delete photos and comments or mis-assign them, etc., etc. However, until something better arrives, I do my best to cope with it.
However, to be positive about this matter, I remain convinced that the Gallery is an essential part of this forum's raison d'etre. Accordingly, whilst I remain as its administrator, I will persevere and try my hardest to perform the duties of the Gallery administrator to the best of my ability.
Please note: This rant is not be taken in any negative context towards this forum's owner nor any of its administrators.
End of rant.
Incidentally, re the blurred photo., if you can put the camera on a tripod, (even one of those mini ones), I often find that that helps.
I'll visit the Gallery now and try to make any tweaks that I feel are required.
Thank you for your patience & understanding.
Al.
