Solar Panels above Earth's Coast

Blue solar cells stretch across the foreground like a tiled roof suspended above Earth. Beyond them, brown land gives way to open sea under scattered cloud banks. Gold insulation crinkles around the satellite body, putting a patch of irregular detail beside the very orderly panel grid.

Treat the arrays as separate sections before tackling the coast. Their rows follow the same perspective, but reflections change from one end to the other. Cloud pieces have softer boundaries than the sharply cut cells, even when both are nearly white. Along the planet's curve, a narrow blue rim gives you a long reference line without needing to finish the surrounding darkness first.
