Album cover ideas

I think this one is complex when looking into the cover, because of the use of colour-there are 4 colours on the cover- the key 2 being the gold and the black, the back ground colours being the pink and greens. In my mind this alone tell's its own story-following the portayl of the song we are doing (that although there are darks, there is always something light)  

This in it's own tells the dark story- with the gold being the only true colour in the image. 

This image has 3 clocks and 3 colours. The gold of the clocks (showing the importance of time). The black of the numbers and the greens of the natural light.

Here there are 2 colours.  I like the impact the title of the album has upon this image- also the apple in the tree. There are in total 4 clocks and one tea pot- strange as this maybe is this not the mockery of time? 

This is a very simplictic image (still using 3 colours). The editing done on the image creates the noise on the hands of the clocks. I think the idea of time has a strong impact upon this. The centre of the clock is in the centre of the swirl- 

Againg simplistic in terms of colours but also the image it self. The apples in the back ground bring the thought of nature to the image and the pocket watch personally makes me think it is more personal. Therefore engaging the buyer with the band. 

I don't think that this font works well with the font on the clocks.  

The title on this cover doesn't stand out enough for me- we have the ageing of the leaf- linking with time in the back ground but also the pick from the roses.  

I don't think that the 2 clocks work here- I feel the image is unbalanced. Perhaps if i was to balance the image equally that this may have more impact. 

I think this works well however the title is not very strong here.
