As the light grew this morning, it seemed as though the entire world was an Ansel Adams' photo. A greyscale world of half-tones.  Even the iceberg replaced its blue-white glow with a dark grey, looking for all the world like a gigantic shark's fin rising from the gun metal blue grey of the Bay. 

It is a subtler beauty, tonal, cold, but dazzling in its own right. Now that the sun has rising higher into the sky it is gone. There is still a lot of grey, but now there is blue and gold, and the iceberg has begun to glow once again.
