It's a great picture, but I must admit I'm having trouble with the procrastination aspect. Good detail, light, compositionm......Can I have the goat?

Great shot! I love the colors in the sky, the water's lovely, and I like that there's enough beach to make sure you know this sucker's aground and abandoned. A really terrific entry.

Wow......we got killed in this challenge and I don't know why. The lighting, the glow around the flames, the definition of the hand, the composition, focus, thirds, solid negative space in the left third.....all really well executed. VERY nice!

This is a terrific inyterpretation of the song title.....very smooth, soft, and sexy picture. I love the softness most of all, that coupled with the low yet clear lighting worked wonders.

What's Left Of Me

Wow! This is awesome!! And I'm not saying that just 'cause you're Fearless Leader!!! I like the tone-mapping effect, I believe it's called. Or at least that's what I understand the pastelizing effect...what looks like antiquing. You do have good sky but I fear that the definition in the wall suffered though that may have been intentional. The whole dirty, gloomy look works really well with this old falling in house. I wonder why it didn't fare better except that if you look at it quickly, you cannot get the effect......it's possibly too subtle.

Filthy Habit - Still Quiting

Now that I know that you're someone I know and love.......STOP NOW.

That's it, stop now.....you'll feel better in three weeks and it keeps getting better. Your clothes won't stink, you'll be able to breathe and taste food.....for me, my voice changed immensely, and I sleep much better.

The picture's fine!....8>)

She'll Be Grown Before You Know It

Okay....I gotta suck it up on this one and tell you I gave it a 4 because with this title, it would have made more sense to have the little girl by herself. I think it's a very good pic......the wall helps make this a small, but powerful look that would have really worked for me had Mom not been in the pic. Mom's taking that quiet moment with her daughter, so I have to say that it misses the mark for me as a Procrastination entry. I have a wonderful twelve year old myself and I grab these moments whenever I can.

Is DPC a quilting site?
by JerseyGenie

Comment:
Oh......I'm an idiot!!! I wondered what this was about......you didn't manage to convey to me that this was a quilt in progress, that said, I'm pretty dumb when it comes to a needle and thread. Decent picture, although it doesn't really speak to me. That would be because the subject material made me tune it out after I missed the title. I would have liked to see the basket/bin in the upper right hand area of the picture sharpened, but that's my opinion. Now that I understand, challenge met.

I'd Rather Photograph It Than Mow It

I remember commenting on this during the challenge, so I thought I'd be able to dodge this one.....apparently not!

This is a good solid entry, a little humor and self-deprecation evoked by the title, terrific light, setting, crispness of detail and the right DOF IMHO.
