As I described in class last week, I was drawn to this particular Guitar Aficionado magazine for whatever reason. I believe it was due to the distinct contrast this magazine has against the other surrounding magazines. Notice how the Guitar Aficionado magazine is dark with a figure dressed partially in white while the surrounding magazines are generally lighter. Something so simple really made this cover pop for me. However, I believe that if this magazine were placed further back on the shelf or mixed with other black-background magazines, it wouldn't have had the same effect. So contrast plus lucky positioning on the part of the magazine is what drew my attention.
