Advertisements have to be creative. After all, it’s their job to not only grab your attention, but motivate you to do something (generally to spend your money). That creative nature means that ads often feature some of the most interesting photographs, photomanipulations, and illustrations available. Here are my top picks for the best ads of Autumn 2009.
