Esteemed readers and fellow journeyers on this exploration of The Neurobiology of Connection. We are in the process of designing the hardcover case for the forthcoming book, and I would like to bring your individual/ collective visual discernment to two iterations of the front cover for feedback.
Essentially, I’d like to know which you prefer and why?
Here is version One
Here is Version Two.
The post is open for comments from everybody (you don’t need to be paid subscriber). You can write simply “1” or “2” or you can tell us why, and if you are feeling really generous you could share any details that stand out to you. You could even say - I like the background of version 2 better, but the title placement of version 1 or anything else. Please reply in the comments, they are open.
Thanks in advance for your time and attention - it really does take a village.

I prefer option #1 but with the tagline from option #2. I like seeing the whole image rather than just a piece of it. I wonder what it would look like to amplify the color of the middle portion of the image - to highlight the triangle(s) and hexagon, and then soften the rest of the image so it's visible but perhaps would reduce the busy-ness of the whole image? Or perhaps there is a different portion of the image that you prefer to be illuminated and then dilute/soften the rest? An idea to play with ;)
I prefer the tag line in 2 (An Ancestral & Autonomic Approach to Enduring Wellbeing), and prefer the layout in 2 as well, partly because it's NOT as "neatly" arranged. I find 1's layout a bit boring.
