Cheetahs, Zip Lines and Photoshop

To create this image that combines a photo of a Cheetah photographed in a zoo, and a suspension foot bridge photographed on a zip line tour in thailand, I used Photoshop. I carefully crafted the picture of a Cheetah blocking the path to success to facilitate cropping as either a vertical, square, or horizontal image. There is plenty of space for including headlines, mastheads and body copy. Seeing the juxtaposition of a wild animal, sitting on a bridge, is sure to make a viewer stop and read the text!

This is a picture of environmental and ecological issues. This is a picture of adversity, of adventure, and of obstacles in the path to success and achievement. This can also be a photo of conservation issues.
