Show location/date data on lock screen photo shuffle

I love the rotating photos for lock screen using photo shuffle. Is it possible to add a widget that shows the location where the photo was taken? Or maybe the date?

iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 14

Locate photo used in iOS 16 photo shuffle wallpaper lock screen There should be an easy access button to Locate a photo used in iOS 16 photo shuffle wallpaper lock screen. After hunting all around to find where a shot is taken it looks like it is buried under layers! When the Lock Screen pick comes up , press and hold screen. Select “customize” then select the “Lock Screen” At the bottom right you should see three dots. Click on the three dots and you will see the option to “show photo in library” This is rediculously cumbersome! Is there a widget or is this just an oversight?

A photo or video's Date Taken vs. Date Created in Finder Re: @leroydouglas "From the Finder window If you right (Control) click in the header area (see the red x) it opens the contextual menu— it is here you can add or remove header categories—including date created." Yes, that is true, but specifically, "Date Created" is the date the file was first copied to Finder on that specific device, and NOT necessarily the date the photo or video was actually first taken. Therefore, it's only when you take a photo or video on one device, then copy it to Finder on another device on the same day when Date Created in Finder is accurate. The only way I'm aware of to determine the accurate Date Taken on a photo or video is to move it to the Photos app, right-click on it there and click Get Info, where the actual date taken is shown. If there's a way to determine the actual Date Taken of a photo or video in Finder, I sure would like to know. I'd think this would be a no-brainer feature for Finder to have.
