Lizard Love
These amazing pictures prove that a bunch of flowers can go a long way - even in the animal kingdom. A male sand lizard, perched on top of a plant, catches the eye of a female with a beautiful bouquet of flowers. After she carefully climbs up the plant to reach him, she accepts his gift and the pair form an almost perfect heart shape.
Say it with flowers: The male lizard appears to be wooing his potential mate with a bunch of flowers
But to prove the course of true love never did run smooth, the female then dramatically slips and falls off the plant - only for her doting new partner to dive to her rescue and help her down. The romantic drama was captured by keen photographer Alexey Tymoshenko.
'I took these pictures in the back of my parents house in Ukraine. I've been visiting there ever since I left home,' Alexey, 19, said. 'When I was a child one of my favourite things I used to do was play in the garden and watch the lizards. 'For many years I've learnt their behaviour - if you're friendly with them they are friendly with you because they get used to you and your hands very soon.
My hero: The female loses her balance and falls, only for her suitor to reach out and gently carry her to safety
'Usually 30 minutes is enough for them to understand you won't do them any harm and now I can photograph them without them being afraid of me.
'But I never thought they could be so passionate and helpful to each other. It was amazing watching one drop and the male dive to catch her.
'And I was especially surprised by the scene with the flower - I'm not a specialist and don't know what it means but it really looked like one lizard is proposing.'
The bride and groom: The happy couple are all smiles as they pose for photographer Alexey Tymoshenko
Alexey, from Ukraine, is studying engineering at university and takes photos as a hobby.
He added: 'I like to photograph nature, especially animals as they don't pose so you can photograph them as they are.'
Sand lizards spend a lot of time buried just below the surface of the sand, although they also enjoy basking in sunshine.

Soulmates
Soulmates by Pat McAllister
Soulmates by Artist Lena Reznikova
Soulmates - by Renee Dawson
..."when you both have worked out your karma with your other partners, you will definitely be together, and from then on, you will always be together each lifetime, until you both reach perfection and union with God."
How do I know if I have met my soulmate?
There are five indispensable characteristics of a soulmate encounter.
First, there is an Irresistible Force that will draw you to each other whenever you live on earth. You will surely meet when it is time for you to meet. No force on earth can prevent such a meeting.
Second, there is Immediate Soul Recognition once you meet. This recognition is on a soul level, not merely on the mental or emotional plane. It is much deeper and therefore more difficult to explain or understand, at first. But each one will recognize the other as his or her other half.
Third, the relationship is total. This means you are compatible in all seven levels of your being, not merely on some of them.
The seven levels of your being are the physical, etheric, emotional, astral, lower mental, higher mental and spiritual. That’s why a soulmate encounter is very strong and quite shocking or incredible to most people when it happens to them.
Fourth, there is no feeling of guilt. No matter what others say, no matter what society or religion may say, there’s no feeling of guilt about one’s feelings for the other.
Fifth, Soul Expanding or Soul Uplifting. A soulmate encounter is essentially or ultimately a spiritual encounter and not a physical one, for the job of a soulmate is to help each other grow spiritually and expand their consciousness.
