2013 Pirelli Calendar winner


So many of the entries to win the 2013 Pirelli Calendar were great, and we spent ages reading and re-reading them.

In the end, the winner was Julian Cartledge with: I'm always happy to see Pirelli safely leading us in a different direction. No cheap tread here! Love it!

However it was close, and some of our favourites include:

Gorgeous and classy - and wonderful to see Pirelli celebrating how sexy a pregnant woman can be. Sasha Vleeshouwer of Cairns.

I'll be sadly saying goodbye to one month while eagerly anticipating the next. Keith Harkin.

A classic that will outlast the test of time, stands out from the rest, one of Pirielli's best me thinks. Di Stephens of Ki.

Great location, great pics and cannot wait to see it in the flesh - so to speak! Yes, please!! Monique Mennerich of Victoria.

Steve McCurry has woven a tapestry where the setting and models echo the others vulnerability as well as their strength. It's a bit like the vulnerability of a car without the benefit of Pirelli tyres however with the protection of Pirelli tyres the car gains in strength. Jacqui Lagaluga of Long Jetty.

Far too nice for limited viewing this will hang pride of place in my busy workroom otherwise known as the kitchen. Elizabeth Roseworn of Blacktown.

Pirelli's artistic, sexy flare, would appeal to men and women everywhere. Women love artistic sleekness. Sensual women are men's weakness. Tania Foster.

Forget the doomsday of the Mayan calendar! There's an abundance of life left in this year's Pirelli calendar. Debra Marr of QLD.

Pirelli calendars always gain traction! This one even more so. Counter cultural, gritty, real world. I'll never get tyred of it!!!! Dan of Adelaide.

Revved up..but not with the pedal to metal! Driving at a cruising Pirelli calender pace! Monica Scurlock.

Pirelli Calendar, a Haiku: Snapshots of Brazil Drenched with classic female grace Mother would approve. Lloyd Jones of Brisbane.

The Pirelli Calendar has gone from the car garage to the lounge-room coffee table - a work of art for not 50% but 100% of the population. Julius Toth of Brisbane.

Power is nothing without control. Bravo to Steve for focusing on who these women are and what they have achieved through their power and control! NJ Joseph.

Photogenic, Intuitive, Realistic, Eclat, Liveliness, Locale, and Innovation -- put them together, and they spell Pirelli!! John Kruger of St. Albans.

The location lends itself to the inclusion of a vintage race car, sadly did not hit the intended spot. John Tzelepis of Melbourne.
