The outline of the trees sharpened as it grew lighter.

Hi

I don't understand the underlined part; could you please help me?

The outline of the trees sharpened as it grew lighter.

Does it mean when the sun became brighter? Or when the tree lost its leaves? 

Thanks,

Tom

Does it mean that "grow lighter" is a typical expression for night turning into day?
