Time Dilation and light

If time for the observer actually slows down the quicker he goes, and as he approach the speed of light, time dilation occurs ever more strongly. That is to say on their watch a few seconds would be equal to a few years for any one standing on earth.......Okay my question is......... As time dilation keeps increasing the closer we get to the speed of light.........Does that mean that for Photons which can and do (obviously) travel AT the speed of light, does time stop completely in their frame of reference ?

well, interesting. i was thinking about this also. maybe time can stop in a certain reference. it is an issue scientists have to deal with...
