Jetpack has a pretty robust Image slideshow feature. (If you don’t know, “Add Media” button > “Create Gallery” > Choose photos > “Create new gallery” > Change type to slideshow in “Gallery Settings” > “Insert Gallery”)
Make sure you have “Compose using shortcodes to embed media from popular sites” enabled in “Settings” > “Writing” > Composing section of Jetpack settings.
Jetpack’s handling of photo’s captions doesn’t work well with long captions (as it overlays the caption above the photo). This plugin modifies the layout so that the caption is displayed below the photo and the slideshow expands to accommodate.

Image Formatr is a simple plugin that goes through all the content images on 
posts & pages, and with zero user changes:
<ol>
<li>gives them a standardized thumbnail format using CSS</li>
<li>puts a caption underneath each one using the title</li>
<li>makes them linked so they popup in full size</li>
</ol>
Thumbnails are not generated, but will be used if available in the media library. 
This plugin is driven by the <a href="http://www.no-margin-for-errors.com/projects/prettyPhoto/" rel="nofollow ugc">prettyPhoto</a> 
library so we could call this plugin a prettyPhoto integration plugin.
*Note: Supports images on Flickr.
<h4>Usage</h4>
This only applies to the images you put in your content, not theme graphics.
<pre><code><img
 src="/images/picture.jpg"
 class="alignright"
 title="A sample caption"
 link="http://example.com/"
 hint="Image borrowed from example.com"
/>
</code></pre>
After the plugin runs, the output to the browser looks like:
<pre><code><div class="img alignright">
 <a
 href="/images/picture.jpg"
 rel="prettyPhoto[main]">
 <img
 src="/images/picture.jpg"
 title="Image borrowed from example.com" alt=""
 width="140" height="90"/>
 </a>
 <div style="width: 100%;">
 <a href="http://example.com/" target="_blank">A sample caption</a>
 </div>
</div>
</code></pre>
<h4>Documentation</h4>
You can find plugin documentation at http://warriorself.com/blog/about/image-formatr/
<h4>Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Standardizes all thumbnails without altering posts</li>
<li>Supports displaying images from Flickr: <img flickr=”1234567890″ 
title=”The magnificent Ceiba at the Archaeological Site of Palenque.”></li>
<li>Generates image captions using the image <code>title</code> or <code>alt</code></li>
<li>Integrates WordPress media library thumbnails</li>
<li>Gives popups for WordPress gallery images (adjust priority setting to 12)</li>
<li>Shows all content images on the blog as small thumbnails 
(does not create new thumbnails but can use Media Library for thumbs)</li>
<li>Allows for fine-grained control of each image’s format</li>
<li>Zooms image to large size when clicked using the 
<a href="http://www.no-margin-for-errors.com/projects/prettyPhoto/" rel="nofollow ugc">prettyPhoto</a> 
library</li>
<li>Outputs standard XHTML compliant markup</li>
</ul>
<h3>Gallery Support</h3>
To get WordPress Gallery images to popup, this plugin must run at a priority 
greater (later) than the [gallery] shortcode which runs at priority 11. Therefore 
set the <code>priority</code> setting to 12 in the Administration Options.
<h3>Overrides</h3>
The actions of the plugin are enabled and disabled with administration settings 
but can be overridden on each individual image.
<ul>
<li><code>usemysize</code> – true/false – true = do not ignore an image width and height</li>
<li><code>usemya</code> – true/false – true = do not ignore a parent anchor tag</li>
<li><code>nocap</code> – true/false – true = do not create a caption</li>
<li><code>nofx</code> – true/false – true = no popup effect</li>
<li><code>link</code> – string url – make the caption a link to the url</li>
<li><code>hint</code> – string txt – this will be the new image title</li>
<li><code>asis</code> – true/false – true = don’t change nuthin</li>
<li><code>group</code> – string txt – separate popup slideshows</li>
<li><code>thumb</code> – string url – image thumbnail (version 0.9.7)</li>
<li><code>page</code> – single/!single/front/!front – page filtering (version 0.9.7)</li>
</ul>
If you want to surround an image with an anchor tag <code><a></code>, then you should add 
a <code>usemya</code> attribute within the image tag or else your anchor will be ignored 
and replaced. If you do not want the popup effect at all, add a <code>nofx</code> attribute 
to the image. If you do not want any caption, you can specify <code>nocap</code>, or just 
leave the title blank. And to have the plugin completely ignore an image and 
output the content directly from the post, use the <code>asis</code> attribute.
Example
<pre><code><a href="http://www.example.com/">
<img
 src="/images/picture.jpg"
 title="Click to visit website"
 nocap="true"
 usemya="true"
/></a>
</code></pre>
Note: concerning the true/false overrides, do not include “false” parameters 
like <code><img usemya="false"></code>, i.e these overrides should only include the attributes 
for which you want to designate a “true” value.
