Evoking terrain

[wedgeski]

Hi all. To help me evoke the proper surroundings during a game, can anyone point me at good sites which illustrate the various types of terrain one might find in different climates and locations? Those with images would, of course, be ideal.

A Google image search will often turn up good stuff for you; if you search photo sites (Flicker, Photobucket, etc) you might find some awesome pics too.

In the past, I've done extensive searching to find just the right pictures of an old insane asylum to convey some atmosphere, but I had to really take some time to find the most suitable candidate.

I would certainly start with Google Image Search to start. Beyond that, over time I would look to keep adding to some pictures that you come across everyday in your journeys across the web. Save them for later and over some time you will likely have a decent collection just from images you stumble upon, turning Google image search for those times you are looking for something specific you don't have in your collection.
