This is a photograph I took of my hanging house plant called a Goldfish Plant. The little blossoms look like little goldfish.

These bright orange little fishes were in bloom the morning. The flowers are 1/2 to less inches wide, very small.

When I grew up one of my heroes was Jacques Cousteau ( 1910-1997). I used to love seeing the documentaries on television about his underwater explorations.So I used a quote by him for this image.
About him from From Google facts:
"French naval officer, ocean explorer, filmmaker, and author Jacques Cousteau is known for his extensive undersea investigations and for co-inventing the first fully automatic compressed-air Aqua-Lung. His explorations were the subject of award-winning documentaries and TV shows as well as popular books."


This and more of my photographs with quotes can be found for reproductions of many kinds at both:
