A year of sunrises - 13 pictures of the sun, each month, same place, same time.

"One of the best places in Edmonton to see the sunrise point change along a familiar horizon is Valleyview Drive, which is where I photographed sunrise once a month for a year. This image is the final result of stacking 13 sunrise images from Dec 2020 to Dec 2021, to visually depict the change in the sunrise point over a year." - Photographer, Luca Vanzella.
