The sacred fire was a flame that was kept continuously burning in the council house of each village, and was used to light all household fire. On October 1, 1838, minus the few hundred members of the Ridge-Watie Treaty party that had already departed for Indian Territory, the Cherokee council met at Red Clay for one final time before the Trail of Tears begun.
While most of the Cherokee Nation was forcibly removed to what is now Oklahoma, a few hundred Cherokee managed to avoid the dragnets of the federal and state forces and flee into the wilderness, eventually forming the Eastern Band of the Cherokee. In 1951, members of the Eastern Band decided to retrace the Trail of Tears, eventually returning from Oklahoma with a flame (in a bucket filled with charcoal) taken from the new Sacred Flame. In 1984, the first joint secession of the Oklahoma and Eastern bands of the Cherokee in 146 years was held at Red Clay, where this eternal flame was created, using the same fire as the 1951 flame.

Making a yellow flame.
But the flame made a nice plume blasting off a 1/4-20” bolt and nut. It looks like a smiling face on top. Like a cats face?

Over the long pandemic I developed an ability to capture close ups of blooms around my yard. The camera mounted on a tripod and the blooms protected from breezes allows sharper focus on the flame acanthus, Anisacanthus quadrifidus, and not worry much about the depth of field. My camera sensor with its macro lens is only about 25 centimeters from this flower so my depth of field I know will be small. I put the far-left anther in sharp focus in hopes that the others will be acceptable focus. The petals from the acanthus flower are mostly in focus. I dehazed the photo to accentuate the contrast. I toned down the brightness of the anthers on the left flower. The contrast between the red-orange and the mottled out of focus greens of the background pushes the flowers forward. The sunlight lightens the throat just enough to where the filaments can be seen emerging from it.
Female Flame Robin (Petroica phoenicea), central Victoria, Australia. This bird was part of a group of adult Flame Robin pairs which were foraging along the forest floor together in the late evening. I spent quite a bit of time watching them and managed to position myself ahead of the group; I was crouched down low and was rewarded when this one made a close approach. Shortly after, the light faded for the evening.

Unlike their close relatives the drunken tulips, flame tulips really know how to bring a party to life even if they are short lived. NB11422 - Happy Tulip Tuesdays!
