Fire is blue in colour because of its radiation, when it is red hot its electromagnetic wavelength expands towards the red end of the visible spectrum but is also gives off infra-red radiation (heat) when the fire gets even hotter however, the electromagnetic wavelength shortens and goes towards the blue end of the visible spectrum, hope this helps :)
