Maybe my phone case making a pinhole for light somehow?

      Any colander/pasta strainer with round holes works wonders for this. One hundred little eclipses cast on the ground–it’s like a free pinhole camera!

        My husband was telling me that sometimes it lines up just right through trees and you’ll get thousands of little eclipses lol. Must be nice to have lots of trees. Stupid desert :(

          Very true! I viewed a solar eclipse under an arbor/pergola that was covered with leaves, and the entire length of the sidewalk inside was nothing but tiny crescent suns.
