Silhouette

To emphasize a scene, a silhouette could be in the background, an outline.. a featureless interior. 

This is celebrating sunrise in a small town in Saskatchewan. Captured around 6am on a Fall season.

Breaking Dawn

Taken around 15km east of Yorkton, breaking dawn represents a promise of a new day. Surrounded by darkness, the light just keeps pushing himself in. :) It is recognized by the presence of weak sunlight, while the sun itself is still below the horizon. Either way, we could expect the sun to still come out and overcome darkness.
