<p>"The ponderosa pine, gazing into the deep canyon from the rocky hills of Lipan Point, did not make it through the winter. Every spring I had reunited with the pine, and the loss left me strayed. Days later, when I ventured into a less traveled part of the park, I was introduced to a new friend. Soon enough glorious morning light painted the skies and lifted my spirit."&nbsp;<em>—Hark Lee</em></p><p><em>This photo was taken by a <a href="http://yourshot.nationalgeographic.com/">Your Shot</a> community member.
