Snow-Embedded Twig

I shot this one day too early for it to be eligible, and, wouldn't you know it, one day later it was gone. GONE! I thought about finding another one (our locust trees are very generous) and sticking it in the snow, but what I liked originally is that the twig had fallen and embedded itself. So I guess it was an integrity thing for me.

I'm pretty sure it's a black locust, Paul. We have three of them, and they are massive and messy.

Is your locust tree a black or honey variety. I hope you say a black locust because I can’t imagine anyone would want a thorny honey locust tree on their property. Those thorns are murderous killers. Paul
