Change of Theme Guidelines:
Beginning this month and through November, assigned monthly themes are optional. From month to month, you may decide whether to do an assigned theme or to develop one of your own.
When deciding not to do an assigned theme you may submit up to 8 images of your choice provided no less than 3 are thematically related either by subject, place, compositional or photographic technique, style, or color. As with assigned themes, these images should be presented first. Before presenting optional theme images, please tell us what your chosen theme is about.
