I like how candid and raw this cover feels like. It almost looks unambitious, but I'd definitely take it over gloomy and uninspired fashion shoots with Vaseline filters. A very ad campaign-like photo for the cover.
I also strangely like the green color over B/W image. It's a rare combination compared to red, fuchsia, and yellow masthead colors that we've been seeing here these past couple of months. The only thing that looks distracting is the text behind the masthead.
