Picturesque.
What is picturesque? It can be used to describe the cinematic, the scenic, the emotive. The pictures that are a little more than just pictures because their subjects are so well suited to film. This round, we're exploring those scenes that make good pictures, and those pictures that make beautiful icons. Now is the time to dig deep for those perfect caps you've been stashing away for a rainy day and hunt down the images of that perfect moment, place, or time. On top of that, you'll have the wonderful caps from our sign-up post to use for half of your set (the other half can include anything you'd like). So download the .zip file or go browse our image gallery and show us what beauty is.
NOTE: because people can still signing up, images may be added throughout the round. The gallery will be updated every day with new caps, and we will provide a new .zip file on day 10 with an updated collection of the caps.
