Blogging away - Front covers

I changed the typography of my cover to something a tad more fancy as i feel the previous one didn't really fit the calibre of magazine I was going for. I also removed the star but im unsure wether to add it back in later, i will ask in my peer review.

I took a photo of the clouds out side and made that my back ground, only slightly editing the lighting of the picture to make a realistic and artistic back ground. im very proud of this as its an artistic choice that isn't often used in music magazines so i defy convention.
