Probably my all-time favourite dawn sighting was watching
Orion rise at dawn last year at the Mount Kobau star party
(early August). Magic!

Hi Laura,

It was in August of 1969 that I first noticed what I later
learned is Orion's Belt - I was fascinated by the line of
three stars rising over the houses towards east in the
dawn sky. I looked at books in the school library, the town's
technical library and a friend showed me Patrick Moore's
Astronomy Yearbook, which had a complete year of monthly
charts showing how to identify the major constellations.
Orion in the dawn was my introduction to Astronomy.
