If I came up with something novel while watching a sunrise, which I wouldn't have come up with had I not been looking at it, where did the novelty really come from?

If the sunrise might have inspired the same idea in someone else, that's a good question.

I've no priors as to how original you are, nor how humble, so I mean this in a general, rather than personal, sense.
