Showed my neighbour how to send a photo from his phone. Now I get the sky every morning

My neighbour is 78 and got a new phone from his grandkids that he mostly used as a very expensive clock. Last month he knocked on my door and asked if I'd show him how to send a picture. It took about ten minutes, most of which was finding the camera. The next morning at 6:52, a photo of the sky over the houses across the street. No caption. The morning after, same thing, a little foggier. Every day since. Clouds, a sunrise, one very blurry crow. The sun is coming up later now, so the photos arrive later too, and I've started waking up a few minutes before the text comes in. I've never asked him why. I don't think I need to know. I just want tomorrow's.
