I've
seen this advertisement in several graphic design magazines and find it
particularly creative relative to the other stock photo ads, which generally
have gorgeous photos but tend to be serious. Although the layout isn't great, it has
other qualities that I find creative and appealing. It stands out to me because
of the bright colors, lush textures, and a bit of humor. The bright green
background is a great contrast from the black & white magazine page that
face it. It really makes the advertisement pop. The photo of the
pink-heart-laden rubber duck wearing the boa stands out even more on its white
background. The white text is also a standout on the background color. The
contrasting textures of the smooth rubber duck, the feathery pink boa, and the
scaly snake skin enhance the piece. The site shows off its large variety of
photos with the keyword search of boa
– an actual boa constrictor and a rubber duck wearing a boa. I also find the
choice of the duck a humorous one. It made me smile anyway!
