The same tower, but much brighter and a weird shade of blue on the background. The tower also emanates some kind of shadow in the sky

Gave a birthday gift to myself 🥹 (it's next week, not today)

Picture of a Nintendo Switch 2 on a computer desk. The Switch is displaying its home screen with some games, and in the desk there's also a chimarrão gourd, a Rubik's cube, a vertical mouse, a keyboard, and you can see a little bit of my monitor with a colorful wallpaper

Had to travel 30min by car to get to the top of the mountains so we could see the eclipse - only to get hit by a storm and cloudy skies. But we were able to see it in the end!
