SIDE BY SIDE COMPARISON OF POSTERS

For this project I used a poster I completed about a contest in Geography class. It was dull and boring and lacked any visually interesting aspects. I

added pictures, graphics and a border and rearranged the text to give more balance. I used bold text and alternating colors to highlight key information.
