Photographer’s Notes Number challenges like ‘Lucky 13’ don’t do much for me. I get caught up in the number and forget to take a good photo. Maybe this is the exception that will prove the rule. I like the photo but worry voters won’t think the coins are the subject.
As an aside, there is a restaurant in Seattle called 13 Coins . Food’s good and it has a quirky history.

Looks like the coins are trying to make an escape! Lovely soft lighting. A touch underexposed, but it suits this image perfectly! Bumping up score from earlier vote.
I really like the way you arranged the coins, and the jar looks classy. The processing makes even the nickels look royal. Nice light and shadows. Love it.
