A Year of Sunrises 2
In 2021, I made a video that depicts the change in the sunrise point over the course of a year, from Dec 2020 to Dec 2021 - • A Year of Sunrises . With start and end points in December, the resulting curve points to the left. Had the sequence started and ended in June, the resulting curve would point to the right. I decided to combine the Jun to Dec 2021 images with six additional images Jan to Jun 2022 to make another video - A Year of Sunrises 2. And since I had obtained contingency photos in some months of 2021, I swapped in three images from 2021. Can you tell which ones they are?
About This Video
The sunrise point along the eastern horizon changes slightly from day to day. In the northern hemisphere, it moves southward from the first day of summer until the first day of winter, then returns northward until the first day of summer. Despite a popular misconception, the Sun rises due east (and sets due west) only twice per year, on the equinoxes.
The sunrise point changes due to the tilt of Earth's axis of rotation with respect to the plane of its orbit around the Sun. The change is most perceptible around the equinoxes (around Mar 21 and Sep 21) and least perceptible around the solstices (around Jun 21 and Dec 21). The farther north or south from Earth's equator, the greater the total change in the sunrise position.
In Edmonton, Alberta, at latitude 53.5 N, the change in the sunrise point in the six months between solstices is quite large (84 degrees). 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 (as near as possible to the 21st of the month as clear skies in the morning permitted).
This video shows the 13 sunrise images from Jun 2021 to Jun 2022 and stacks them to visually depict the change in the sunrise point over a year.
