I had family and a former neighbour over the other night. As fall has finally come and the nights have begun to be a little chilly, I remembered my fire basket and some wood in the basement, which - with the help of my neighbour, who happens to be a volunteer fire fighter - we set on fire. The sparks flying from the logs were quite a site and we didn't have to shiver any more. Matter of fact, the fire burnt for so long and was so cosy and warm that I decided to spend some time of the night next to it, covered with a thin blanket, lying on the warm pavement, completely shit-faced with booze and just enjoying that moment.
"One can enjoy a wood fire worthily
only when he warms his thoughts by it
as well as his hands and feet."

Now this is an old one, the Russia Supreme Court building on fire, back in the late 90's, not sure which year it was exactly... scanned in y2k
I've been telling the story behind this pic for years, but very few people ever saw it :)
here's how it looks now: www.fm-craft.ru/projects_2.php ...uglyish ;)
Not sure if I remember which lens it was, but most likely the old Helios...
P.S. the building was still under construction back then.
P.P.S. sorry for breaking up the current theme, but I could not help it ;)
Here is a picture that I took tonight of the fire we had at the beach. You can see the excited flames and the intense color of it. This was taken with my iphone 4s.
What an amazing day!
Firstly I spent 10 hours at work... but it is always fun working with my awesome colleagues at the Arcade!
Had my beach photo from Wednesday shared by the Bournemouth Beach and Bournemouth Tourism pages on Facebook, bringing in a lot of attention for my own Facebook page!
THEN! Finishing work and going to the Gardens of Fire, which are beyond any and all figments of imagination! While I was there I had a couple of people stop me and ask, "Are you Sirius Art?" to which I replied, how do you know! As it turns out my dreadlocks are more recognisable than I ever thought! lol (The Gardens of Fire are around tomorrow night as well, then they are gone! Definitely go and look before they go!!) Got some spectacular photos, this is just one of them!
And then to top it all off my first prime lens was waiting for me when I got home after my 14 hour day! :D
"Easter fires are typically bonfires lit before, during, or after Easter Sunday as part of secular and religious celebrations."
One night around 2am we stumbled upon this at Fuji Rock, perhaps one of the more "surprising" acts at Fuji. This man started off dancing in some kind of apparently fire proof suit under a shower with several jets of fire surrounding him which seemed like your "standard" man-in-fire act. However about half-way through to the surprise of the crowd he got rid of ALL of his protective gear. The greatest part of this was the crowd's reaction.
We are at the permanent exhibition, "The First Tasmanians: Our Story" at the Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery in Launceston.

In the cabinets in the foreground we have some lovely shell necklaces. This display also talks about the essential use of fire in the lives of the first Tasmanians - especially during the exceptionally cold period of the last glacial maximum (Ice Age). Fire could be created using flint or rubbing sticks together. It was carried about in fire sticks (slow burning material that smoldered and allowed the community to take the fire with them).
The phrase "carrying the fire" has usually been synonymous with taking one's civilisation with you. It has been used more recently in Cormac McCarthy's apocalyptic novel, "The Road" - symbolic of the values of human community.
Of course fire was essential for both warmth and for cooking. Cooked food allowed nutrients to be digested faster and this was critical in cooler climates.
In Saint Joseph's eve, in some Italian countries devoted to St. Joseph bonfires are lit for devotion and sacrifice, in honor of the saint.
