Get informed as well as inspired by Tenerife details photos of Masca, Teide and others after fires! Don't only see the sad side!

Look at Tenerife details photos of Cañadas with Teide first...

There is beauty after fire, too!
See some photos in this page with poetry or visualize pictures as possible art or as highly suitable for it...

Please, note:You may use photos of this site for non commercial purpose, by the way, provided, you pay credit with a URL link to its homepage.

Mount Teide Tenerife as a fire symbol One of photos Mount Teide as a fire symbol.

See Teide with fire
in its belly and a red hot glow around it.

Its mountain being quiet and standing in background...

Its body is steeled against harm - against wildfires in Tenerife.

Teide accessories are by its feet like brown shoes - a rough country side - green before.

Also check out page Teide excursions where you see other pictures with plants or trees not burned near mighty Teide peak.


Tenerife landscape transformed by fire-fairy The breath of the fire fairy
blew over parts of Tenerife lands.

A silvery touch was left behind in fairyland fashion with nature and grasses whispering like voices of ghosts in the mountain wind.

Kind of to be understood as surrealism or to be elaborated as such...

Nature does its own transformation of style.

See it as you like but, don't only look at Tenerife details after fires - in sorrow, only...

Mount Teide seen as picture of cubism There is beauty in sadness in the eye of the beholder after the fires in Tenerife.

Nature delivers so many motives for all styles of art.
Spain's highest mountain is seen as a picture of cubism revealed by Tenerife details.

Change the colors and forms slightly and you have a piece of art.

Contribute with your own works to
Tenerife attractions art shopping, eventually.

Or sell art online at my favorite art café for art inspirations, and enjoy the art of living and so much more!

Tenerife landscape seen by impressionism

Double click for better impressionism....Pretend adding your own dots of paint, sprinkle in some light brush strokes and turn the photo of a Tenerife countryside with Teide, burned indigenous pines, different trees, roadside and other details into an impressionist painting...

If you are not trained in art just visualize the picture as a landscape bathed in lights barely touching tree tops... Not the author is responsible for such suggestions but, Tenerife wildfires 2007 which left island particularities to work with. landscape may be romance/romantic painting

Click photo titled romance ...on your right...

Imagine Tenerife details of a shepherd with sheep
or whatever you might fancy and you have a picture of romanticism, a romantic scene...

Devastated land only needs life filled by people. They exist, although, hidden. Make them come back.

Turn what you see into something with even more romance...

Tenerife Prickly Pear native plant

Tenerife details photo indigenous plant:

Unharmed by wildfires Tenerife Prickly Pear Opuntia Cactus is waiting for the bees. This cactus which looks like the ones found in southern Africa grows wild near Mount Teide and all over Tenerife amidst other endemic plants. The parasite Dactylopius Coccus scale insect from which Cochineal die is made, certainly, survived flames which should have been confirmed in page endemic plants.

The tinier life forms are the more immunity they have against any natural harm including fire.

palm with black trunk in Masca Tenerife

Photos Masca August 2008 one year after fires:

Picture this palm with a striking burned black trunk which will adorn it for ever.

A Tenerife Masca palm is bowing to the sun.
Fire couldn't bend nor destroy it.

Nature's honor is always directed to the warming light.

Now, many such black palms have become striking Tenerife details which bow in their own fashion
all over the Masca mountain village slopes.

Learn more about Tenerife sun and read an anthem I wrote for it...

pruned palms in and around Masca after fires Look at the pruned palms in and around Masca.

Palms in the highly important Tenerife tourist destination were cared for in this way shortly after the fires.

Masca dwellings (houses)Tenerife

The alluring Masca village looks almost totally recovered from its ravishing flames a little more than 12 month later.

All fire damaged Masca dwellings seem to have been rebuilt or repaired.

Native vegetation all around them recovers their lush deep or gray green, slowly. Rain is needed.

Fire smoke rising in Masca Aug.2008

Much in Masca looks like it never saw any fire. Tourists come and go to look, to walk, to hike, to climb all around and up and down Masca.

The shop for Tenerife souvenirs Masca where the author can be seen walking in its neighborhood had a palm standing near it - without a black trunk.

It gave testimony that no flames touched it.

About 10 feet below the shop and very near the spared palm an indigenous Canary palm tree wasn't as lucky.

It was branded in black. So was what was left of a shed beside it.

Ironically, close to the latter scene about 100 meters (330 feet) further on was fire smoke rising up into Masca air, when friends and I passed by in August 2008.

Guess, how we felt spotting this, already from far...

However, such minor Tenerife details didn't seem to cause any panic. Some lorries were parked near the smoke. Those who most probably cared were invisible to us.

Burned land by El Tanque Town Tenerife

Sad realities after fires in Tenerife:

Shortly after the devastating flames nobody could have been inspired to see any art in it. People were too worried.

My first fire damage Tenerife details were captured on photos by October 2007.

It was almost hurting to see Tenerife exposed to the elements like that, about 3 months after the wild flames' disaster.

The fires around el Tanque town which is near the Teno mountain range slopes,
just above town of Buena Vista del Norte shaved, almost, everything down to brown soil.

 fire damage

Discover another one of my Tenerife
pictures with forest fire damage and bare empty spaces between pines left behind after the flames where small gorges in between are well visible.

Here again, mount Teide is in the background.

The next 2 photos will
reveal fire harm of a different nature.

Below see a focal point of Masca with a lonely dwelling whose roof is still nice and red. Some green palm tops are sprinkled nearby. Cinder gray color surrounds almost everything. It was captured on camera by my friend César F.Real Real shortly after destructive flames hit this Alice in Wonderland mountain spot of Tenerife Island.

Mazca

Masca's mountain slopes with extraordinary views from its "rabbit highways" were off limits for humans for a good while after the fires. So were, all proper hiking paths.

There, obviously, will be landslide danger when the rains come which will heal the country, in general. Look how exposed much of it is...

 masca wayside

Take notice of mountain slopes, cliffs, and gorges of Masca still being spectacular Tenerife details after the wildfires.

One year later, we could see that Masca recaptured most of its former subtropical, romantic movie appeal.

masca A hill
near the rugged alpine Masca paradise

showed a rather uninviting landscape in detail last year by October 2007.

We had no rain, really, which would have caused shifts of the soil.

Notice the vulnerable spot on the photo beside...

Tenerife details also
demonstrate burned crops
near Masca, a year ago.

burned crops Don't the crops on your right
look like singed corn to you?.

Or could they be sugar cane
just as well?

In was sweet corn, in fact...

Yes, many farmers were not
going to see the harvest they
were expecting.


santiago del teide By the road from Masca leading into
the district town of province Santiago del Teide which carries the same name
all mountain slopes were deprived of their protective greenery by Tenerife fires. Green sprouts, slowly started shooting again, a year later.

After fire photos of Los Gigantes town which is very close by are irrelevant. Los Gigantes was not exposed to flames.

Loss of rare birds due to Masca fires?

Nothing was reported on endangered birds due to the fires. Meantime, any natural disaster is always a big threat to wildlife.

Masca and its little Pesetas monument by the wayside:

Discover one more of charming Tenerife details of the mountain village Masca which commemorates the good old days with a slot machine for Pesetas. It costs you a Euro, when parking your car by the wayside, to find out all about it. You will not forget it, for sure.

Please, go back from Tenerife details to wildfires in Tenerife for a detailed report with different photographic evidence where all fire news of 2008 in forests as well as nearby are taken down.

Interesting photos with Tenerife details some of which are with photo tips:

Photo of the day is a mirror image involving a Tenerife tourist bus, comes with photo tips and is for photo sharing.

Christmas lights derives from photo of the day but is a night version, has photo tips and is therefore also for photo sharing.

Outside Christmas decorations is also a mirror image for photo sharing, but involves the sun and is typical for romantic holidays in Tenerife as well.

Tenerife photos Abaco Mansion are part of digital night photography in one of Tenerife museums near Puerto Cruz with VIP treatment entertainment for luxury holidays.

Tenerife photos Arona by Las Americas show scenes fit for millionaire holidays and serve as tips for going out in Tenerife by spending little or more money.

Above photo round up of Tenerife after fire conditions doesn't include damage to live stock and pets because, it was rather insignificant while people were not harmed.

The following video without sound taken after the fires is unlikely to teach you much more but, you are free to see it.
