Fiery Re-birth

            At night, the Grand Canyon takes on a black abyss like feeling, especially when there is some cloud cover.  

In the morning, however, the sunrise spectacularly relights the canyon from an almost dormant, monochromatic state (seen here in the foreground), to a magnificently textured and colored series of rock formations, trees, canyon walls, and ledges that looks alive with the movement of the sun throughout the day.

On this particular morning, I was able to catch that 're-birth' as it was occurring.  There is no snow in this image, simply the limestone ridge becoming visible as the sky begins to brighten.  The Desert View Tower, in the distance, is the nearest observation point to the easternmost rim of the Grand Canyon.
