Life Cycle Poster Analysis

Below are the two life cycle posters that I found, I chose two different poster styles but the same subject so that the analysis is more interesting as I am able to see the similarities and the differences.
There is a solid structure which takes its appearance as a circular format which shows the whole life cycle of a butterfly. As it is literally a cycle of life, it takes the format of a circular shape as it is the best way to show that it starts as an egg and ends as a butterfly. The same typeface is used throughout as is used in the heading. All of the small images are in circle shapes which I feel is suitable for the audience which would probably be for children or someone looking at the diagram for quick and basic knowledge of the life cycle of a butterfly.The main colour in this diagram is different shades of blue, the light blues feature in the background of the small circles which is like a blue sky. The flow of information is in the arrows which link the different sections together in a neat circle image. 



This example of the life cycle of a butterfly features a lot more words and information which means that it is more suitable for adults and older children which are looking for more information than just images. Despite there being more information, there isn't that many words, as the images are photographs rather than cartoon images which means that it is more likely to be correct in its information. The circular theme still stands with this example as it goes with the idea of the cycle of life. There is a blue colour scheme with this example as well apart from this one has a texture added to it which, in my opinion, looks more childish than the other example.
