Hello,

I'm looking for a way to add a scale to an image (an imported TIFF file). 
I've searched the forums, but many answers are for Graphics (generated plots etc), not Images. 

I have,
photo = Import["example.jpg"]

If I use, 
Show[photo, Frame->True]
the frame is very nice, but is it possible to scale the numbers it uses? (or somehow overlay a axis onto the image?)

Thanks
