 After testing the latest version of Twenty Thirteen there has been many
 improvements Most of which I am very happy to see. But '''not''' having
 the caption below the image of post-format image is a poor design
 decision. Here is why:

 I can see many post the WordPress support forum asking why the captions
 can't be seen. For example this one: [http://wordpress.org/support/topic
 /twenty-thirteen-image-post-image-doesnt-use-title-alt]

 If the user decides not to have a caption below there image. Let it be
 '''their choice'''. But asking for a caption in the upload portion of the
 site and then not displaying is counter intuitive.

 I know I might be new to these parts (Trac and WordPress Development in
 general) But after 7 years as a professional photographer and then another
 5 years as a web developer. I implore you to reverse this decision and the
 confusion it will surely and has already caused.

 You could says… Yes that can be added a child theme… And I could do that…
 But that is not the reason for this request… It is for the large number of
 people who will think this is a bug, or they did something wrong or will
 make a frustrated posts to the forums. I am try the prevent that…
