Flat Earth to Globe Earth in 6 months, here is what flipped me

I used to be all in on the flat earth stuff. Watched all the videos, thought the globe model was a scam. What broke it for me was doing my own star trails photo in Phoenix last January. Pointed my camera at Polaris for 3 hours. The circles were perfect. On a flat plane that just doesnt work. I know the rebuttal about lens distortion or whatever, but I tested with two different lenses. Same result. The math side got me too. Distances between cities in the southern hemisphere only line up on a globe. Anyone else flip sides on a big one like this? What did it for you?

The lunar eclipse shadow on the moon is a circle every single time, and that only works if Earth is a sphere casting that shadow. A flat disc would throw an oval or a weird stretched shape depending on the angle. Nobody in the flat earth camp ever gave me a straight answer on that one.
