      Mod here.

      We’re not looking for accidental photos, as in “I yeeted my phone and accidentally captured A Renaissance™”, because those mostly don’t exist.

      We’re looking for well-composed photos that, as the photographer was pursuing a nice photo, also accidentally copied the rules of Renaissance painting, which does sometimes overlap (as a happenstance) with the fundamentals of good photography.

      We remove a shitload of photos that are objectively gorgeous and technically astute, but don’t look like paintings, so trust me, there’s a difference.
