Cheetahs are the world’s fastest animals, and as such are the iconic symbol of speed. In a world where speed is ever more important in both business and people’s personal lives, the need for such visual representations of speed is ever increasing. It is with that need for speed in the world of communications and messaging that present these five fast cheetah photos.
What better way to start this collection of visual metaphors for speed than with a cheetah in the starting blocks? Take a fast cat and add to it’s speed with a quick start on a track! This image was created using images shot at a high school track, the cheetah image, and a sky image photographed in, of all places, Yemen! Next on our list is a rocket powered Cheetah…adding a powerful boost to the “speed” metaphor. This speedy feline stands on a skateboard as he rockets down an asphalt road. When was the last time you saw a Cheetah powering by on a bicycle? This fast cat has learned that two wheels are faster than four legs! Next we visit the world of corporate business with one of the big cats racing through an office. But perhaps the fastest of them all is this Cheetah pulling a “wheelie” on a motorcycle…now that is FAST!
