The articles that Taylor writes or oversees are popular because of their visual aspect as well as their ability to be read or viewed on the fly. The photos are perfect for any reader to easily grasp the concept of in a matter of seconds. Taylor's articles also appeal to pathos quite often, as the photos can elect emotional responses (especially if they concern impactful events, such as diseases or wars) and can capture the events portrayed as clearly as if the reader was there themselves. Taylor's informative paragraphs carry an objective tone, because they contain true statements and facts and accurate, virtually non-biased descriptions of the images shown. Alan Taylor's Photo Section of The Atlantic is informative and visually stunning for any reader.
