I decided to pic one page with an image and one with a text on it. I like the image because of the way the building is represented and the depth of the building is impressive. As for the text page, I like the layout and how some of the words are written in capitals…

Task 1 I chose the first page because it not only shows a beautiful image but also a image that teaches you something. The second page is interesting as it shows the reprint of the images provided in the book, this reprint is not only visible on this page but on all the back pages…
