A fast turtle, or tortoise, is shown blasting down a road with a red rocket roped to his back as he rides a skateboard at speed.

A fast turtle, or tortoise, is shown blasting down a road with a red rocket roped to his back as he rides a skateboard at speed. Flame roars out the back of the rocket and the rope strains to hold it in place on the turtle's shell. The skateboard features red wheels which complement the color of the rocket. The background is a desert landscape with early morning clouds. This image is not just about speed and perseverance, something we all know from the childhood stories of the Tortoise and the Hare, but is also about innovation. The image is compelling on a number of different levels. The bright red rocket and the red wheels add the impact of color. The flame shooting out the end of the rocket also adds a powerful punch to the image. The palpable sense of motion also is an attention getter. The image has been carefully composed to provide ample copy space for all manner of headlines, body copy and even inset photos. The image is easily cropped to vertical, square or horizontal formats without detracting from either the message or the impact of the image.


Innovation Imagery, A Rocket And A Tortoise

Innovation is one of the important messages this image of a tortoise, with a rocket strapped to its back and riding a skateboard down the road, is communicating. This tortoise has tapped into his creativity to solve a problem. In a business world that is obsessed with speed, and thinking outside the box, this image fills the bill for a powerful visual metaphor for those and other business concepts. The image is an instant read at Internet thumbnail sizes while providing maximum impact when used as poster or billboard sizes. This image, BTW, was created using Photoshop by Henry Hood, my intern at the time. This is an image about innovation, thinking outside the box, and problem solving. Oh yeah, and it is an image about speed.
