I was pretty devestated that we would entirely miss the solar Eclipse today, but due to a streak of lucky timing and a fast luggage conveyor belt at London’s Gatwick airport we managed to find the most wholesome viewing party ever.
A few dozen people trying to find a spot in the sun on an old disused off ramp and one sweet person sharing her eclipse sunnies for everyone to use.
There was also a younger boy who had made a camera oscura style viewer out of tin foil and an old cereal box.
This was such a wholesome gathering and I feel very blessed we got to witness this after a lovely family holiday.
Can’t wait to see all my friends around the world and their professional setup results, for now here’s my try with the iPhone 17 Pro and the Blackmagic camera app 📸
