Important terms that I discovered :

Resolution : the highest the resolution the smoother the fade is .

Notes :

I was having trouble finding the blue in the candle light. I then noticed a tiny bit of blue in the base where it touched the base. It might be because the light was flickering because of the cold air. The white- warm light was more apparent to me.I also noticed that the tip of the flame was more orange.
