I am now on Twitter at @TJScottPictures - twitter.com/#!/TJScottPictures - and would love to have you follow me.
Younger than springtime, are you
Softer than starlight, are you,
Warmer than winds of June,
Are the gentle lips you gave me.
Gayer than laughter, are you,
Sweeter than music, are you,
Angel and lover, heaven and earth,
Are you to me.

Recent images by Bald Monk and ICT_Photo inspired me to go purchase a fish tank and start playing. These are from my first ever session with a tank. I can't tell you how much fun it was! More to come when time allows.

Such beautiful creatures.
I now think it is a hover Fly -- in disguise. (see the note.)

The pure, the bright,
The beautiful that stirred our hearts in youth,
The impulses to wordless prayer,
The streams of love and truth,
The longing after something lost,
The spirit's yearning cry,
The striving after better hopes;
These things can never die.

Path to dreamtime beach
The expression 'Dreamtime' is most often used to refer to the 'time before time', or 'the time of the creation of all things', while 'Dreaming' is often used to refer to an individual's or group's set of beliefs or spirituality.
For instance, an Indigenous Australian might say that they have Kangaroo Dreaming, or Shark Dreaming, or Honey Ant Dreaming, or any combination of Dreamings pertinent to their 'country'. However, many Indigenous Australians also refer to the creation time as 'The Dreaming'.
What is certain is that 'Ancestor Spirits' came to Earth in human and other forms and the land, the plants and animals were given their form as we know them today.
These Spirits also established relationships between groups and individuals, (whether people or animals) and where they traveled across the land, or came to a halt, they created rivers, hills, etc., and there are often stories attached to these places.
Once their work was done, the Ancestor Spirits changed again; into animals or stars or hills or other objects. For Indigenous Australians, the past is still alive and vital today and will remain so into the future. The Ancestor Spirits and their powers have not gone, they are present in the forms into which they changed at the end of the 'Dreamtime' or 'Dreaming', as the stories tell.
The stories have been handed down through the ages and are an integral part of an Indigenous person's 'Dreaming'.

I took this one last night. They look so cute to me just sleeping together. These two have grown up with each other and are very close.

The building's lighting shadow running on an angle and really disappointed me, but it's the way it is and obviously nothing that 5 bucks and a kid with a pellet gun can't fix with a few simple pumps and a little aiming.
Many thanks to all of you that took a look at my last sphere image and I am thrilled to see a few go visit my friend Eddi 07 for a few textures.
Have a wonderful Saturday and I'm thinking of a possible double image day to make up for the weak week.
Thanks again my friends and as always
a BIG HELLO from Ottawa, Canada.
Let me tell you 'bout the birds and the bees
and the flowers and the trees,
the moon up above, and the thing called love.
Let me tell you 'bout the stars in the sky,
the girl and the guy
and the way they could kiss
on a night like this.
BEATRICE,MARTINE,LOU,LEONINE,LUCIE,ROSE,SOPHIE,FRED,et toutes celles que j'ai oublié mais qui sont dans mon coeur !
