I like this visual as it is eye-catching and unique. I would recommend this visual to animal-lovers as after seeing such an engrossing picture, they would most likely want to subscribe to National Geographic channel.

The visual shows a pair of ear buds which give off light connected to an IPod. The article states that the ear buds that give off light `can help alleviate Seasonal Affective Disorder symptoms` and can `help prevent and treat mood swings`. Thus, when people see the visual and read the article they will consider buying the ear buds the ear buds that give off light because they will think that it is a good device as it allows them to listen to music and at the same time help them in their Seasonal Affective Disorder. I like the visual as it does not just show that the ear buds giving off light but another of its function which is listening to music through connecting it to an IPod. I would recommend this visual to people who love to listen to music and have Seasonal Affective Disorder.
