Dawn breaks on statues of Pharoah Ramses II (R) and Amun, the God of Light (L), in the inner sanctum of the temple of Abu Simbel, February 22, 2009, marking the anniversary of Ramses' coronation. The temple is angled so that the inner sanctum lights up twice a year: once on the anniversary of his rise to the throne and once on his birthday. REUTERS/Goran Tomasevic (EGYPT)
