I feel myself like the flame
Of a candle fanned
By every passionate claim,
Flickering fast,
Or brought to an upright stand
In the curve of a hand.
There is nothing certain, nothing steady
About the mind
That can so alter and wind
Itself in sorrow and mood,
And be ever ready
To change like the leaves in a wood.
And what of our loyalty?
That would turn, alas,
To a flickering vagrancy,
The shadow of grass,
Were it not for the certain ever-recurring calm
Of the unknown sheltering palm...

We were very surprised to encounter this bright male Flame Robin (Petroica phoenicea) in an area we've never seen this species before. He was hunting from a farm fence, away from forest remnants, jumping down into the nearby grass, before flying back up to the fence. He did not appear to have a partner nearby.
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.
