Why do I take a lot of sunrise photographs

I take a lot of sunrise photographs and I’m sure many of you may wonder why? I’m an early riser, most of the time I’m awake and up before the sun rises. I find each sunrise unique. Taking a photograph of the sunrise also gets me out and thinking about photography and creating art. Sometimes, like today, I grab my “real” camera and set up the shot. Other times I use my cell phone. It doesn’t matter which camera what matters is to start the process for the day.

While there are many days I may not take many other photographs taking a photograph of the sunrise starts my new day, getting me thinking about art and photography. It generates the mental flow of developing concepts and techniques.

What stimulates your thoughts of creativity and art, I’d love to know.
