Description
One day last winter, after an ice storm, I looked out the window. It only lasted a brief moment, but the tips of the branches were coated in ice and the bright sunlight made those branch tips sparkle and shine. In five minutes, the moment had passed. The photograph I took did not do the vision justice. To get the white tips of the branches, I used painters' tape as a resist before painting the blue background.
Haiku
Now the suet cage
Is hanging near the window
Who will find it first?
The mockingbird?
Or maybe the woodpecker?
Who stays all winter?

I love the elegance of showing just the upper part of the trees and the icy branches on the very top. Vote
