My idea does not include rabbit feet...horshoes...is that wrong. My photo plan does consist of 13. I don't want to be cremated in voting because I did not interpret correctly.

I think Art Roflmao was kidding, but sometimes it is hard to tell... (about the lucky, not the simpler method...though, now that I think about it...)

I still see thirteen objects as one subject, but I think I can accept that that is what they intended it to be, a thirteen-object subject and not a subject thirteen times.

The thing that I can't understand here is the word 'lucky'... why lucky 13?

Well if you have fifty sheep in a field and you manage just to get thirteen in the shot, its got to be luck, hasn't it?, honestly i tried two consecutive evenings to do just that, the only time i pulled it off the little woolly things were all blurry.
I gave up on this one, but i look forward to voting.

I think it's a play or twist on the fact that thirteen is often considered a particularly unlucky number; thirteen at dinner, Friday the Thirteenth, etc. Some contrarian athletes try to outsmart Fate by taking the number deliberately ...

I'm in and fairly happy with my shot.
If anything, its going to be a more natural representation of 13 than some of these images, I am sure. I am imagining a lot of set up shots where some random object is represented 13 times. I think those shots will end up being more boring.

I didn't think about it, thank you :)

Maybe because in Italy the unlucky number is 17 (I know, we are strange people here). I knew that the unlucky number is 13 everywhere, but I was imagining different interpratations ^_^

We once had a cow named "Meat" so the kids wouldn't get confused what his eventual fate was. He was sweet, but the barbecue sauce made him even sweeter.


I heard that this fella had cooked venison for dinner, and when one of the children asked him what kind of meat it was he said: "It's something your mother often calls me"

"Don't eat it" cried his eldest son..."It's arsehole" :O)
