sunrise

The sun crossing the horizon in the morning. If no sun is visible, tag it dawn or sunlight instead. Not to be confused with rising sun flag.

Distinguishing between sunrise and sunset can be difficult, so only tag sunrise if the sky hues appear more white or yellow, as is most prevalent in media.

Sunrise occurs after dawn
