1. Hospodarske Noviny- Prague, Czech Republic. I like how the bars on the top stand out because they are colorful. Since there is only one photo on the cover, it really draws all the attention to it.
2. Well. All the headlines were in czech and I couldn't read them, but the headline about the main photo was big and I could tell it was the main headline.
3. 2 (beginnings of) stories, and 3 blurbs on what is in the newspaper.
4. There is usually a big cover photo, and the name of the magazine is large.
5. The amount of content on the front page varies. Sometimes there are many stories and photos, and sometimes there are only one. Also the amount of color varies, because some are just in black and white.

Magazine Cover peer review

The Twilight Howl-Aurora
I liked how all of the subheadings were on one side of the photo. It balanced out the picture because the subject (a dog) was on the left of the photo. I also liked the font used. It was pleasant to look at and didn't look childish or unprofessional.
The magazine name could have been much bigger. There was some extra space on the bottom right corner that could have been utilized.
I liked how professional it looked, including the photo.
Yes there is a barcode and I'm fairly sure it's in the correct spot.
Yes I would probably pick it up. The subheadings sound interesting and funny and the cover is nicely made.
I assume this is a portrait. I could be wrong though.

I like the font used for the headings because it is bold and bright. I also like how the title is vertical, but still easily readable.
The random subhead on the side was hard to read and took away from the magazine's aesthetic. Most of the subheadings were placed sort of randomly.
I choose this magazine because of the cool style of the title and colors, and the colors of the biker jumped out at me.
I'm pretty sure it's in the right spot.
Yes I would pick it up because I like adventure and Austin and that's what the magazine is displaying.
Portrait.

I really like the colors used for the headings and name of the magazine. They stood out against the picture but also stayed in the same color packet. I also like the placement of the subheadings, and how big the title is.
I think the green used on the main story headline could have been utilized again, maybe at the top of the magazine.
I picked it because I liked the background photo and how the magazine just overall looked professional.
Yes and it is in the right spot.
I probably would pick it up because the cover is nice and attracting, but I don't think I would buy it because the headlines don't interest me that much.
I think a portrait.?

Prompt Shoot peer review
http://wesleysphotojournalismblog.blogspot.com/2016/01/prompt-shoot-3.html
My favorite photo was "the end". I liked this one because of the small focus ( I love how only the words the end are able to be read), and the black and white aspect. I also really like books & words and whatnot.
My least favorite was the "eight" photo. It doesn't stand out to me as much as the others do.
I really like how 3 out of 4 of the pictures are in b&w. It is creative and makes the "yummy" photo stand out more because it is in color. I also really like how the photos were not just taken from straight on with no zoom or change in aperture. I like how there are different angles and variety.
I think they could use aperture more wisely. In the "connected" and "eight" photo, the aperture blurs out almost all of the picture. Yes, aperture does create interesting depth of fields and focuses, but when used in the wrong situation it can be hard to find the "big picture" meaning. I think the first photo could have used a different aperture, because the focus of the picture was connection, yet it is zoomed in too far. This creates the opposite sense of connection, as it crops out the parts connected to the gears.
I think the "the end" photo was nicely portrayed. It was very literal, but sometimes being literal is the best way to go. It makes it easier for the audience to figure out the point of the picture.
I think the "Yummy" photo was the least successfully portrayed. The photo was taken nicely, but it really is just a picture of a drink, with not much meaning.
