Did you know that the exhaust pipes that are attached to your house are able to dream? This pipe lives on the side of my house, just a few feet from the side door. It is the exhaust pipe to our hot water heater. Every time I see the cover, I wonder about the little fairies that might be living there. Here is what one of my pipe's dreams looks like ... a dream of breaking away and going on a Grand Adventure.
For the dream, I used a scrapbooking paper made by Raspberry Road Designs, as well as overlays, sparkles, lights, wings and little girl from various scrapping kits.

This is Virginie dreaming...
as usually my dear Zin would never seek for anyone else's attention but for the attention of his Persian girl ;-)

Dream Awhile · The Ink Spots - Sincerely Yours
Close your eyes
The music is soft and low
Dream a while
Before it is time to go
"you should have loved me"
It's a few years ago now but the memory is as fresh as yesterday - Alina and I spent some time at a small lake north of the city, early in the morning to create this and many other images.
Alina is a dancer by training (and temperament) and it is obvious by her graceful movements and her poise. If you have a chance to review the other images I have posted of her at the lake, you may get a sense of what I mean.
The 300 SL Gull-wing has always been my dream car. but this has to be my wet dream car the Uhlenhaut Gullwing.
It is one of 2 ever made and was developed as a what was going to be the next generation race cars based on the legendary 300Sl Gull Wing
In a Wonderland they lie,
Dreaming as the days go by,
Dreaming as the summers die:
Ever drifting down the stream--
Lingering in the golden gleam--
Life, what is it but a dream?
You'll probably think it's unusual to take a shot of a building in portrait, I photoed both way, but for some reason just like this photo best with the chimneys and plant pots, hope you like it too.
Designed by the Messel family as a place to escape London life and enjoy the gardens, Nymans was a 'Dream House' of creativity and fun. Outstanding 20th-century garden, set around a romantic house and ruins, in beautiful woodland. The house was partially destroyed by fire in 1947 and the romantic ruins of a fairytale gothic mansion remain. We are one of the National Trust's most eco- friendly properties and we aim to inspire a more sustainable way of living.
Nymans, Handcross, Haywards Heath, West Sussex, is an English garden developed by three generations of the Messel family, from the late 19th century, and brought to renown by Col. Leonard C.R. Messel.
Nymans, since 1953 a National Trust property, is the origin of many sports, selections and hybrids, both planned and serendipitous, some of which can be identified by the term nymanensis, "of Nymans". Eucryphia à nymansensis (E. cordifolia à E. glutinosa) is also known as E. "Nymansay". Magnolia à loebneri 'Leonard Messel', Camellia 'Maud Messel' and Forsythia suspensa 'Nymans', with its bronze young stems, are all familiar shrub to gardeners.
In the late 19th century, Ludwig Messel, a member of an unusually creative German family settled in England, bought the Nymans estate, a house set in 600 acres on a sloping site overlooking the picturesque High Weald of Sussex, to make a setting for family life and entertainments, with Arts and Crafts-inspired "garden room" planning where topiary features contrast with new plants from temperate zones around the world. Messel's head gardener from 1895 was James Comber, whose expertise helped form plant collections at Nymans of camellias, rhododendrons, which here, unusually at the time, were combined with plantings of heather (Erica) eucryphias and magnolias. William Robinson advised in establishing the Wild Garden.
His son Lt. Col. Leonard Messel, succeeding to the property in 1915, replaced the non-descript Regency house with the picturesque stone manor, designed by Sir Walter Tapper and Norman Evill in a mellow late Gothic/Tudor style. He and his wife Maude extended the garden to the north and subscribed to seed collecting expeditions in the Himalayas and South America. The garden reached a peak in the 1930s and was regularly opened to the public. The severe reduction of staff in World War II was followed in 1947 by a disastrous fire in the house, which survives as a garden ruin.
The house was partially rebuilt and became the home of Leonard Messel's daughter Anne Messel and her second husband the 6th Earl of Rosse. At Leonard Messel's death in 1953 it was willed to the National Trust with 275 acres of woodland, one of the first gardens taken on by the Trust. Lady Rosse continued to serve as Garden Director.
The garden suffered much damage in the Great Storm of October 1987, losing 486 mature trees and many of the shrubs. The pinetum, one of the garden's earliest features, was destroyed. Restorations are ongoing.

i was walking along the beach, enjoying the most beautiful sunset i ever see, when i met this little boy, alone, watching the stars for minutes, without leaving that position.
He was completely baffled looking at the stars ..
What was he thinking? What was he seeking?
- i do not know, just know that i prayed for their dreams become true.

Eu estava caminhando pela praia, apreciando o entardecer mais bonito que eu já vi, quando encontrei esse pequeno garotinho, sozinho, olhando as estrelas durante minutos, sem sair daquela posição. Ele estava completamente perplexo olhando as estrelas..
O que será que ele estava pensando? O que será que ele estava pedindo?
Eu não sei, só sei que orei para que os sonhos deles se tornassem realidade.
E você? O que acha que ele está pensando ou desejando?

I just used a color filter "cool "and increased the exposure time and snapped the photo. Then, i increased the contrast and VOILLÁ!
What do you think he is thinking or wanting?
This is a Faerie from our garden, she came from Cornwall and lives out there with some other Cornish Faerie Folk. I bought her in for a little photoshoot for today brief of "dreamy."
Its a tad over processed, not sure if that is my limitations or the phone. (all my images are taken with a phone)
1910/20's saw the heyday of 'spirit photography', when the Spiritualist movement fed the insatiable hunger of the war bereaved, and unscrupulous photographers made a handsome living producing portraits with ghostly images of a loved one lost in the war hovering in the background.
Knowledge of photography was not widespread at this time and few understood that the 'spirit' could be introduced by a simple double exposure on the same photographic plate.
As a result, many Spiritualists were encouraged to believe that the camera could 'see' what the naked eye could not, a belief which helped legitimise the Cottingley fairy photographs.
