So we download the picture:

Amogus

We use the command exiftool to seek for hidden info:

And we get the flag: LITCTF{s0m3t1m3s_th1ngs_4re_n0t_4lw4ys_wh4t_th3y_s33m}.

I used Aperi’Solve before using exiftool but I missed the flag because I wasn’t paying attention to the result of exiftool given by Aperi’Solve.
