This week’s photo challenge is about capturing rhythm and motion, and sharing a photo of something that appears like dance.
Sitting around a camp fire watching the dancing flames is one of my favourite things to do. The flames take on a life of their own and have a mesmerising and almost hypnotising effect. Watching the flames reach up, jump, disappear and reappear to their own rhythm with the smell and sound of a sociable wood fire is utterly peaceful.

Peaceful and mesmerising.

I agree with your comments about fire being peaceful. I used a bonfire shot in my post for this challenge today 🙂

Dankie, dit bring spesiale herinneringe terug. Ons is hier redelik beperk met waar en wanneer ons mag vuur maak as gevolg van die brandgevaar maar ons het al ‘n paar keer in die winter op vriende se plaas ‘n massiewe “bonfire” gemaak. Dis weer ‘n ander ervaring.
