It's a shame that they were unable to photograph this, and resorted to retouching/compositing.
This is a wonderful concept that was well-executed (I think only designers would note the composite). The no-nonsense type gives the cover an authoritative tone that pairs well with the imagery.
@citizen - Agreed. Wonderful concept, but sled stands out like a sore thumb. Too bad.
To me, the composite is obvious. A toboggan sitting on a hill would not cast a shadow beneath it. It would be sitting down in the grass. With a little advance planning (or a photographer in the Southern hemisphere), this easily could have been photographed.
Even the horizon looks retouched... and I had not realised it was meant to be a sled.
