Front Cover Picture choice

These are the three pictures that I wanted to choose from to have for my picture on my front cover. I asked my target audience that I used for my target audience research. On which picture I should use for my front cover. As they would be the ones how would be reading and buying the type of magazine that I am making so there opinions are important. The picture that will be used for my front cover for my first draft is the first picture that is shown here. The other two picture where the  other two that I was thinking about using. I did not choice to use the bottom picture as my target audience said that they did not feel that this picture was good for a front cover. And I did not use the middle picture as they said the background was to white. So I choice to use the first picture on my front cover. I may change the picture that I have for my front cover may change when I am making my final draft of my music magazine. If there is a better picture that I could use for my front cover when evaluating my first draft. I did have other picture that I could have used for my front cover but these three where the ones that I wanted to choose from to use. As I feel that these ones are the best ones that I could use.

This first picture is the picture that i will be using on my first draft front cover:

This picture is the same picture but edited so that it had a white background, but i will not be using the edited version of this picture, i will be using the one above which is the one that i did not edit.

I will not be using this one, this one has not been edited and this is the original image.
