He photographs the same sunrise spot every day for a year

Same bench, same tree, 365 completely different mornings.

Ray started the project to prove to himself that he could stick at something. Day 40, he realised the spot was never the same twice: fog, fire-orange, a heron standing exactly where the light pools.

He posts each photo to the community page with one line. Day 212: "Worth the alarm." Day 300: "The heron is back. Unconfirmed whether it is the same heron. Emotionally, it is the same heron."

His followers now set alarms too. A few have their own spots.

What view could you commit to noticing every day?
