Hmmm....The covers are okay in my opinion. My main problem is that Shinomura or whatever his name is work with Ayu is over photoshopped so nothing looks real. As a fashion photographer myself I know that you want your model and the scenery to look flawless but that doesn't mean unnatural. One of my main problems is the background like others have mentioned. It almost looks like a backdrop rather than the real outdoors. My opinion may change when we get larger versions of the covers but as of right now these are not Ayu's best. Another bad thing is that we may be stuck with pictures of Ayu like this for a while since I have a feeling there is a contract with Shinomura that cannot be broken without many legal issues to follow which Avex nor Ayu probably wants.
