i like the way they use the colors to indicate depth and the fact that the im looks 3-D but its all flat colors. it also look like texture that you could feel even if it just a picture

See America

Nice, detailed WPA poster with fairly normal colors. What I like the most is how the different size of trees throughout the composition really help depict scale.

National Parks Travel Posters

I like how the colors are used in all four pictures none of them are too much they just kinda flow together.
I've never been to any of these place but just by looking at the poster it makes me want to go and actually look at the images that are on the poster.

Montana


.

Created by Richard Halls in the 1930s for the WPA. This piece uses an almost color blocking approach to simplify the beautifully complex scenery to invite in an audience looking for simple relaxation.

Yellowstone

I like the composition in this poster. I like how Old Faithful is put off to the left side and not right in the middle. The poster does a good job at capturing the movement in Old Faithful and the sky. I like the colors used in this poster they are very dramatic and lively, they have a nice contrast to them.

See America. Welcome to Montana

I thought that this poster was really beautiful. I love mountains and the thought of the clean mountain air that is complimented by the beauty of the scenery, so this image really hit home for me. America has so many beautiful mountain ranges that I found this to be a really great representation of the natural scenery in our country.

Hawaii The Island of Volcanoes


I chosen Hawaii because I think it has a unique view of volcanoes, the surrounding body of oceans, and just plain nature. I wouldn't mind visiting this place once more. My opinion of this place cool place to be at.
