Lag BaOmer (Hebrew: ל״ג בעומר), also Lag B'Omer, is a Jewish holiday celebrated on the 33rd day of the Counting of the Omer, which occurs on the 18th day of the Hebrew month of Iyar.
This day marks the hillula (celebration, interpreted by some as anniversary of death) of Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai, a Mishnaic sage and leading disciple of Rabbi Akiva in the 2nd century, and the day on which he revealed the deepest secrets of kabbalah in the form of the Zohar (Book of Splendor), a landmark text of Jewish mysticism. This association has spawned several well-known customs and practices on Lag BaOmer, including the lighting of bonfires, pilgrimages to the tomb of Bar Yochai in the northern Israeli town of Meron, and various customs at the tomb itself.[1]
Beach bonfires are the perfect ending to anyday at the beach. The clouds on this day wouldn't let up until the very last bit of light faded away. Just missing some smores.

Autumn Fires by Robert Louis Stevenson
In the other gardens
And all up the vale,
From the autumn bonfires
See the smoke trail!
Pleasant summer over
And all the summer flowers,
The red fire blazes,
The grey smoke towers.
Sing a song of seasons!
Something bright in all!
Flowers in the summer,
Fires in the fall!
Autumn is so beautiful but so brief, have a lovely day everyone!
Un altro scatto dalla Focarazza di Roccalbegna, potrei fotografare il fuoco per ore senza mai annoiarmi.. Il fuoco si specchia sull'acqua.
Another click of Focarazza Roccalbegna, I could photograph the fire for hours and never get bored ..The focus is reflected in the water
Remember, remember, the 5th of November...
Having a special evening with barbecue and bonfire by the sea to keep us warm with new friend from Norway when the sky unexpectedly light up . Had to quickly take a shot to capture the magic moment

A column of flames from the base of a pile of branches from our annual Canadian Thanksgiving bonfire.
You can find beauty in the strangest of places, during bonfire night I noticed how the fallen leaves were being beautifully lit by the raging bonfire.
I've also recently discovered the double-exposure function of Analog Efex from the Nik Collection... the swirling pattern at the bottom here is a second exposure warped out of shape. I have a feeling there is a lot more to this package than I am currently taking advantage of!
