With the new database and a much more detailed lowest resolution earth to look at, we can really see lots of abstract art pieces created by the various land and water and other features. If you see something that can be cropped down nicely to fill the viewer frame, show it to the rest of us here. There are some already placemarked in the BBS than can also be imported here. Best with roads and borders off.

EDIT: And don't miss this wonderful collection by Seer. And this by trvlnman
Favourite screenshots in Google Earth is another great one started by JosieNorden.

EDIT: I just came across this thread of Earth Art locations (post # 3182 !!! - now that in Keyhole/Google Earth terms is ancient ). These were created with .eta files, predecessor to .kml and .kmz. They had to be converted to be saved and in the process lost all tilt, altitude and direction data. Only location was retained. So they will look nothing like they originally did, also because imagery has changed in many places. But zooming in and rotating and tilting may give an idea why they were originally selected as art.

EDIT: There is another collection here by mudshark
