And then there's the super obsessive "let's make an overhead shot of
an island we create in paint then photoshop and then terragen" way:

The left shows the topographic map I made of a hypothetical island. I
then took that and photoshopped it so the edges were blurred between
the bands of color were blended. Then I imported that into a program
called "Terragen" which creates photorealistic (mostly) landscapes,
added "foliage", "sand", water, and then made it look like an island
within a lagoon. I changed it so it would be an overhead shot, and you
can see the final result at the right of the picture. Terragen
automatically loads its terrain files in grayscale so I cut the
middleman out and just did it in shades of gray.
