Block Description

Bugsy Sailor has a simple New Year’s Resolution, to watch and photograph every sunrise of 2019.

On January 1, for the seventh consecutive year, he set out along the Great Lakes to watch the first sunrise of the new year. However, he hadn’t watched many sunrises from one New Year’s Day to the next.

During his 2018 road trip to Whitefish Point, he made the resolution to watch and photograph every sunrise of 2019. The Year of the Sunrise focuses on being deliberate in seeking nature, while getting back to his love of journaling and photography.
