Original caption

Don’t let this flop, I nearly burned my camera for this 🥲 This was my metal viral capture of the 2024 solar eclipse in Canada, thought I would resurface this clip to celebrate this years total eclipse in Iceland since I couldn’t make it due to other commitments. But figured I would still bless your feed today with this 🤙🏽 Never Give Up Keep Creating ♥️ #solareclipse #eclipse #sun
