Ah I think i can help, try looking with the lens to the left of the platform with the Stalfos skeleton on, you will see some invisible platforms which you need to jump on to get to a door around near the side of the entrance, going in there to get the key.

Shoot an arrow at the diamond thing. Normally does the trick. And if you don't have arrows and your within range, shoot the hook-shot at it.

Eye? Is that one of those eye switch things you activate by shooting arrows at.
I'm a bit vague on this bit, as haven't played this temple in years and it's not as clear as the others in my memory. I should start playing the Master Quest again myself. I got up to the temple below Lake Hyrule, but haven't bothered to get any further yet. Shall do soon tho...

The Lens of truth (or whatever it's called), just use a combo of Lens of truth and the long shot, look at the ceiling and walla.
She goes mental and turns green and flies to and from the spot where the scarecrow will appear.
You can use this to get across to the fire arrows before you fill the lake back up. Although you actually can't because:
1) You need the Longshot to reach the scarecrow and
2) You get the Longshot from the Water Temple, and when you've done that the lake fills back up anyway.
So the scarecrow there is actually pointless.

Once you teach the scarecrow your song as young link, when as adult link, if erm.... what's her name (fairy), flys off and hovers green over some ground and you can't figure out what for, try playing your scarecrow song and a scarecrow might pop up. The use of this being that you can hook-shot onto him, to take you to places you couldn't get to before (or to just get there a lot quicker).

Neither of these work when there is no (discernable) fire source in the room, and you can't use Deku sticks as an adult unless I'm very much mistaken.

Either, light a stick with another lit fire, and run around with it lighting things before it dies out.
or (which is probably the most useful tactic), position yourself behind a fire, wip out the good ol' bow, and fire arrows through the fire to whatever to want to hit with fire!

Also longy, to refill the lake you have to complete the Ice cave behind jabu Jabu in Zora's domain, then go to the Water temple and beat the boss there. Simple.
