Inspiration - Colour Palette & Image
I really like the colour palette on this magazine cover; it is bold and very defined - the text and masthead stand out from the page whilst also blending well with the features of the cover. The mix of black and red text helps break up information on the cover, and both colours stand out on a white background (especially the red, which is used on the masthead).
I also admire the image used on this cover; as a black and white image, it sticks to the set simple colour palette to maintain simplicity, and helps the red text stand out. This is done though, without taking any quality from the image. It is a very stylish close-up shot (to see facial expressions in detail) and is striking and though-provoking due to its black and white nature. If anything, the lack of colour allows both the image and the red masthead to stand out separately and together, in a stylish and effective way.
