'13' page reshoot

as stated before my idea had migrated to making a point of the 13th page in the book, and this idea of photographing the 12th and 14th pages to suggest that the 13th page is missing.
I did like the images i took before of the books and pages, diarys ect. so i thought about that and worked on getting images in the same style but of 12 and 14.
One of my friends made a point of saying it would be good if i could suggest a friday the 13th rather then just any no. 13 on say a calender, so i took this into concideration while shooting the images for this superstition,
Obviously while before was experimentation this is far more focused on what i wanted from the imagery. My original selections were:













However when put next to each other the angles of the books make the images look weird together. Either i needed on in a similar angle or a completely different angle of shot really. So experimenting with the other images i took i found the image below had almost the exact same angle of the book which fitter much better with the other image.
The only thing that annoys me wit this image is the fact that u can still see the number 13. which obviously was not the point of this expercise. after much debate over what would be the best way to get rid of this -reshooting but that would mean gettin angles right and trying to crop out the 13, editing it out, or just leaving it. I tried experimenting with editing out the numbers and it seemed like the best way around this plight.  It also makes the 14 jump out of the page alot more. which i like.
