Two Page Spread

I think it is very clever how this has been set out. The article for this magazine is only one page and yet, both pages are linked together using a large images that take up all of the space on the other page and some of the space on the page next to it, giving it a far more interesting look than most articles than are on just one page or on both sides of a page, making this article stand out more and make it more attractive to the reader and more desirable to read. It also gives the image of large open space, linking to the topic of the article which is about riding bikes in the outdoors as seen on the image. The photo is very interesting because it focuses more on the plants than the refreshing, pure and breath taking outdoor green rather than the people on their bikes, perhaps to prove a point that the outdoors is a beautiful place to relax and explore, away from busy buildings and roads and what better way to do it without damaging the environment than on a bike? This probably why the article itself is on the opposite page, to focus on the outdoors feeling. It is also good, how the font at the bottom "Jedburgh" is fat and chunky instead of thin and fancy, to represent a rough and dirty outdoors look, yet is done the white text to show how pure and innocent the outdoors can be which links to the background on the opposite page, to show the beauty next to the roughness as the font is black, making it easy to read, but also to fit in with the theme, making people feel a need to ride their bikes and be more grateful for the wildlife. The text in neatly set out yet, some text is pushed away by images, showing that the wild cannot be stopped easily and will fight to stay strong.
