Background Images for Chinese Tones

For a flat tone, it might be nice to have a picture with flat cobble stone walkways, or nothing special added to the pictures at all.

For the Falling then Rising tone, a Chinese Silk Lantern like this would be perfect:



If there are such things as Rising-Failing Tones (maybe in a diphthong situation), some evergreen fur tree would be perfect picture background with branches shaped like this: ^

For rising tones, it would make sense to have highrise buildings in the background, or a staircase of some kind.

For failing tones, it would be great to have the picture set at night with shooting stars, or the scenes could be by an entrance to a subway going underground.
