Hot Rods with Flames
View allAll Photos Tagged flames
The Flame-faced Tanager is one of the most spectacular members of the diverse and exceptionally colorful genus Tangara. Living up to its common name, the forehead begins as a deep glimmering red, shading into a brilliant yellow on the nape and sides of the head. This "flame" contrasts sharply with the jet black back. The Flame-faced Tanager is a common member in mixed species foraging flocks in the canopy of humid montane forest from the Andes of extreme southwest Venezuela south to central Peru. It forages exclusively along mossy branches and occasionally peering at the underside in search of arthropods. There are three subspecies of the Flame-faced Tanager, described based mostly on minor differences in plumage. The species is typically found from 1000-2600 m and is most numerous above 1500 m. The IUCN Red list assesses the Flame-faced Tanager as a species of Least Concern; however, the population size is declining due to habitat destruction. Thus, the Flame-faced Tanager should become the focus of future studies.
Have a Peaceful Saturday!

Ramphocelus flammigerus -female-
(Flame-rumped Tanager / Toche)
This mom is now taking care of its offspring in the nest. For that reason her feathers appear as "messy".
The Flame-rumped Tanager occurs from western Panama south through Colombia to western Ecuador. This is a sociable bird, being typically found in monospecific flocks, which inhabit shrubby semi-open areas.

I'm standing by the lake, it had been snowing all day and night before. Leaving home, the sky was cloudy and gray, I wanted to photograph the monotony of our winter. When I was taking photos in the middle of the forest in the previous place, I noticed that there is a bit of red in the sky. I hurried as fast as possible on the snowy path to the shore of the lake to watch the tearing of the cloud cover and the colors of the setting sun. The sky seemed to be on fire and so was I lol as I watched and photographed this spectacle.
A panorama of four photos. In the afternoon, the sun set at 15:51. Finland.

Shot for Smile on Saturday! :-), Heart on Fire
How I made it: The paper heart I learned how to make via a TikTok video. It is held with a clothes pin that I blacked out with a marker. The camera is pointed at a slight up angle to not capture the top of the white votive candle about 2 inches behind the heart. In addition to the candle light, it is front lit from below with my cell phone light for about half the exposure.

It wasn't an easy task this week. After several different approaches, attempts and smoke detectors going off, I finally decided to roll up paper in a tealight holder and simply burn the paper - this is the result. Edited in On 1 Photo Raw 2020 and Topaz Adjust.
Das war keine einfache Aufgabe diese Woche. Nach mehreren Methoden, Versuchen und Rauchmelder Aktivationen, habe ich letztendlich Papier zusammengerollt in einen Teelichthalter gesteckt und verbrannt. Das ist, was ihr hier jetzt seht. Bearbeitet in On 1 Photo Raw und Topaz Adjust.

Micro (macro) photographs of lit candles, showcasing the amazing art that's produced when a candle's wick burns and the candle's wax melts into incredible shapes.
The heptagon is the seven-sided shape produced, I believe, as an artifact via reflection or captured lens flare from my camera's lens.
It took me awhile to be able to expose properly for both the burning wick and the flame itself, and it's challenging to get a sharp focus as I shoot these handheld.

Flame Robin (m) (Petroica phoenicea) from one of two encounters with this species this winter, central Victoria, Australia. The female was hunting across the forest floor nearby, while the male briefly surveyed the area from this low vertical perch; he then joined her shortly afterwards. This is an extreme crop, so fine feather detail is lacking, but I really liked the setting.
