What are some potential alternatives or workarounds for reading EXIF data in older PHP versions?

In older PHP versions, the `exif_read_data()` function may not be available for reading EXIF data from images. One potential workaround is to use a third-party library like `PHP Exif Reader` to parse the EXIF data instead.

// Example workaround using PHP Exif Reader library
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use PHPExif\Reader\Reader;

$exif = Reader::read('path/to/image.jpg');

// Access EXIF data
echo $exif->get('Make');
echo $exif->get('Model');
