 NOTE: The name for this photo, "Shaded by Earth", comes from the intense blue line on the horizon, which is caused by the shadow of the earth, cast on the atmosphere above the mountains and into the distance.  Where the pink sky shows above, it is the "break of day", as the first rays of sun glance through the atmosphere.  In just a few minutes after this photo, the rays of light will hit the Teton Range, as the blue band of sky merges with the horizon ... as the sun climbs higher on the eastern horizon.
