1. In the first picture, there are four yellow ducklings standing together, one grey duckling standing alone and a swan flying in the sky. In the second picture, there is a tiger who is smelling a red flower. In the third picture, there is a cat who is looking in the mirror and imagining itself as a lion.
2. In the first picture, the grey duckling may feel lonely and different, and unfairly left out by the other ducklings because of the way it looks. Perhaps it dreams of becoming a beautiful and graceful swan one day.
In the second picture, the tiger looks gentle, sweet and thoughtful, showing its delicate and vulnerable side. In the third picture, even though the cat is small, it sees itself as being strong and powerful, like a lion.
