Concentrate enough photons on a material, and it can heat up faster than it can dissipate the energy. Eventually something like wood will combust.

how does the telescope "concentrate" photons?

I would say Aliens, but I'm not allowed to discuss that.

mirrors or lenses, depending on the telescope

looks like that must've been a relatively small telescope, i've used mirrors as large as half meter for that task. sun gives away about 1100w per square meter at our distance in case anyone is wondering about solar welding

Things interact with their internals. There's no little ballistic projectiles called photons shooting through the air.

There's wood, which is dark. And the sun, which is bright. The wood brightens because it's the easiest thing for the sun to do. Flash points of chemical temperatures increase and a runaway chemical reaction occurs.
