Unfortunately I don't have photos of the terrain at the moment, but I will see 
if I can come back with some on the ground example.

For now, I put some example photos in the Talk page of the feature 
proposal<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Proposed_features/Ground#Examples>
 . Feel free to leave a comment on any photo, e.g. whether or not you would it 
consider as soil. I would be also curious to know what tag would you use to map 
the ground of this kind of areas with the already existent tags.

Thanks,

Independent of what i already said in

https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/tagging/2020-July/053795.html

i am always wary of tags lacking any examples for on-the-ground mapping or a 
practically locally verifiable definition.  And defining a tag negatively 
trough the lack of something (vegetation) rather than positively through 
something that can be positively observed is problematic.  We have had this 
problem with natural=desert already (which some had defined equally though the 
absence of vegetation).

Overall as it stands this does not seem likely to become a successful and 
meaningful tag.  Maybe you can show some on-the-ground examples of areas you 
think this tag is suitable and needed for and get input from the wider 
community how they would suggest to characterize and tag such areas.
