I know google images bot is slowly, or at least I read about that, but why is so slow?

All the images have alt, title, a link to the image... now I am showing the image inside a h5 tag, just to test something different

I have allowed google bot to spider images in webmaster tools

Am I missing something regarding images?

Thanks for your time
It maybe better to remove the following as it is better not to restrict
the bots in any way & bad bots will ignore restrictions anyway.

also to remove line from meta tags

-<meta name="robots" content="index,follow" >
----------------------------
and just replace original robots.txt file with

User-agent: *

---------------------
allowing everything
just might work.....
of course many other people will probably beg to differ.
(of course it could be that the site is not in ENGLISH (broma).....
