Tropical South America 15s 70w

Creative Rationale

Over the high Andes mountains of Peru and Bolivia, where the extreme altitude creates an otherworldly atmospheric environment with very low pressure and frigid temperatures despite the tropical latitude. The extremely low pressure and steep gradient inspire a cosmic infinity net of varied dot sizes, while the bitter cold temperatures call for cool blues and whites against deep black space. The light winds and high humidity create a contemplative, floating quality with moderately dense circular patterns that suggest the thin mountain air and crystalline clarity of high altitude.
