Damn. If I had a photo like this I'd enter it everywhere, it's that good as well as all-purpose.

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?

I totally see procrastination in this, even without the title. It's about the occasional need to get off one's um, goat belly, and git moving. I love this photo. Great job!

So how DID you get the goat onto the bench and stay put?

The colors are beautifully done.

I love him. The people who made negative comments were just trying to get your goat.

For all the negative comments, your score is pretty good. The shot was done nicely but I agree with some of the comments about not showing procrastination. Actually, I gave this a 6.

Not sure if goats procrastinate, maybe that's all they do, but I like your shot a lot.

Maybe lazy more than procrastination but matters not - this is a cute as all get-out kinda shot.

Beautiful, how did you get this one to sit still?
  Photographer found comment helpful.

A funny subject. I wish you didn't frame the goat so tightly: including the entire bench and some of the environment would make this shot a lot better. 4

I don't want a tribute, I want to see what you put off doing. DNMC.
 01/10/2007 12:15:24 AM
But what are YOU procrastinating? Getting the goat milked?

Sorry, this shot says nothing to me about procrastination or something you put off last year. The title can't carry the challenge.
