My favorite cover

Bloomberg Businessweek, November 12-18, 2012: "The Next Four Years" 

This portrait of Barack Obama is predicting how he will look in the next four years. The maker of the magazine is saying that the stress Obama is facing during his presidency will cause him to age terribly. The portrait is good because its just focused straight on Obamas face age and features. The background is completely white and there is limited text and is in reduced in size and its just black in color. The lighting is just trying to draw attention to Obamas enhanced age and exhausted expression. The cover lines are limited and small, there is only one cover line and it is off to the side and very small in an attempt to help focus all the attention on Obamas face.
