China

Edit: This post became out of order when it was updated. It should be the 3rd post on 26 Aug.

As my third tile, I had dreams of depicting the Great Wall of China rolling over the mountains. I struggled with the layers and over lapping colors and the end result was less than desired.
This wasn't good enough and I knew it. I needed to hone my skills and vision. Living in Beijing, I decided to use the famous Temple of Heaven instead. 
Better, but I don't need the words and the image was missing something. Finally I came up with:
As you can see, added a frame on the 3rd tier and some shadows while removing the border and words. Now its something I can be proud of.

Salar de Uyuni, Bolivia

I remember a friend telling me about a beautiful lake with stunning reflections. (An interested conversation because they were Chinese and there is a similar place in China called Qinghai.) I found a good image of the lake, dried and showing the salt flats. With a lot of time and a limited color palette, the final tile is complete. Enjoy.
