Sunrise at the Grand Canyon

In the moments before sunrise the Grand Canyon begins to come to life. The many temples and buttes of the canyon reflect the warm morning light, and the clouds glow in hues of orange and yellow. The only sounds to be heard are the gentle whisper of the breeze and the faint roar of the distant Colorado River as it continues its work carving into the rock.
