Nuance remains critical to emotional imagery

Sophieweb

As a culture we have come to expect more out of the pictures we see. We are
far more visually sophisticated than previous generations.  In fact, we demand
that the images we consume each day -- many of them from advertising -- stand
out. The pictures we see, some 5,000 to 6,000 daily, actively compete for
out attention.
