Hi,
Yes in my culture they do consider it unlucky to take a picture of someone when they are asleep , especially a baby. In fact the other day i was forbidden to take a picture of my sleeping new phew by the elders in the house . I really don 't know for sure, but i think it is to do with this - until sometime back it wasn't a common thing to take photographs of people. They just did it on a rare occasion and taking photographs of infants was an absolute no no. The belief was that a person's life span would decrease with every photo taken. So, there were not many people who had a picture of themselves. So what happens when a person passes away ?? What do u do when you don't have a picture of theirs ? So , Sometimes they take a picture of the person after he is dead . ( I have seen this in some of our movies , so i hope am not wrong) . So maybe that is why they consider it unlucky to take a picture of a sleeping person .

Picture Of Someone Sleeping

I drove a new cat 3,000 miles and she did fine. A young cat like that might be just fine, since it's too young to have gotten set in its ways and learned to be afraid of car rides. Some cats are okay with cars and different places, some not. A friend of mine has a cat who seems to like travelling and is happy anywhere, even gets in the car ahead of time while packing is going on. The only thing you can do to prepare the cat a little is to take it into the car and sit there for a while with the car off, maybe offer it a bit of food and playtime, work up to starting the engine and then to driving around, getting the cat used to the idea of being and riding in a car. Get a good travel crate for the cat with washable bedding in it, and never ever open a car or hotel door or window unless the cat is in the crate. Until you know how the cat will behave while riding, it's best in the crate. Cats can climb up onto the dashboard(or worse, even inside it) or get under your feet which makes for dangerous driving. Keep a litter box in the car, but don't be surprised if the cat won't use it in the car which might be just as well. Feed it lightly in the morning, offer water mid-day. Take the litter box into the hotel room and have it there for when the cat gets out of the crate, and a big sheet of plastic under it is a good idea in case of any poor aim by the cat. If you want to try a leash for it, start now, but if it would use the leash only on this trip I wouldn't bother. Try not to do any marathon driving days, keep it to 9 hours or so max. Motel 6 accepts pets.

I have only had my pic. taken once when I was a teen and things were not going so good at that time. I took my ex-husband a picture wile he was sleep and less than a year we got a divorce. I never thought about it it might be true, but then again there are so many thing like amulets that you can were and I have and things still go wrong. So the only thing I go by is faith. Good LUCK!

Taking a picture of me is bad luck..... for the person taking the picture. Because I WILL make life a living hell for that person until the picture is destroyed.
It is the ultimate invasion of privacy, and no one is allowed to take pictures of anyone sleeping in my home.

Some people think that Harry Potter is satanic. The truth is that people will believe all kinds of randomly crazy things without any sort of proof, or any kind of common sense about things. It must be ignorance or a lack of education.

I dont think I've heard of this before but it's not true. It's just a superstitious belief. Pray to GOD to protect and guide you before you go to bed and nothing bad will happen to you.

If they are not a morning person,and you wake them up...then yes it could be bad luck for you....especially,if they have a tire iron handy by their bed.

I've not heard that, but people used to believe that it you took a photo of them it would trap their soul in the camera.
