About I got stuck in a snow blizzard. Driving any further was impossible so I had to wait.
From my car window I noticed these animals. With some imagination they could have been black swans.

Thank you very much Malules. I also was very thankful to see some shadows appearing more than just snow. Looking my slides afterwards I recognised the type of animals I saw :-)
best wishes,
Paul

It was a very cold atmosphere and the dream was: that I got stuck in the snow...nearly a nightmare I would say :-) I saw slightly more than a white curtain.
Thanks for your visit and comment Luca,
all the best,
Paul

We see swans using imagination or just using another more appropriate language that links certain animals with certain names according to previous agreement.
Thanks for your visit and all the best Saad,

Very good Riny. Obviously your imagination and association with respect to Norway and Snow brings you in watching "reindeer".
A bell is ringing :-)

I have tilted the image anti-clockwise with some degrees but honestly it was not like I saw it on the gentle slope of a hill.
I could equally have taken the snow out and imagine that all I could have done for making horses like swans.
No I did nothing more but capturing the special moment and leaving any further to your imagination.
