I took this image from the Horseshoe Mesa early morning just as the sun was rising over the rim.  The sun is reflecting off the Mesa, and Vishnu Temple.  You can peer into the Hance Creek drainage as it heads toward the main gorge of the Colorado River.

Thanks for looking!

Awesome place, very nice shot but I do wish the top right wasn't blown out. Perhaps multiple exposures or a diagonally placed GND filter to tame that would really take this picture over the top.

Thanks for the replies.   I did make some bracketed images, but was only able to recover a little additional detail.  Along with a slightly different crop, this version hopefully is less distracting.
