these brittle branches won't survive the vermont winter.
fragile limbs stretch across the strange autumn sky, savoring the bittersweet taste of their last season.
they are like the afterimage of lightning.

What a shot dear Brattcat!
This "word"and it's meaning is completely now for me, thanks for this post!
I'm so enchanted with the perfect composition, branches e orange sky!
Wonderful!

Surreal and mystical - awesome shot. And with your poetic gift it becomes delightfully awesome!
Indeed, the black flash! Really? They will snap when turned brittle by the cold? Brrrrr ...
The colours and the varying thickness of the black make this a most satisfying image, BC.
A perfect description of a magical picture. Amazing sky.
Sunny :)
Funny, I never thought of the lightning likeness, but you are absolutely correct.
Very nice! Very seasonal indeed.
I like the lightning comparison, it's so real and fitting. The colors (practically only yellow) are stunning. Great image.
The ghost of a tree in its final fight against seasons and time,trying to catch the last rays of light , as a last caress ,before leaving..
Beautiful shot and comments. I love that negative image thought about lightening.
WOW! Gorgeous image!
... and yet, lit like this, these branches also hint at hope that after the winter is over they will be green and beautiful again.
I think a lot of things snap or break or explode when they get cold. We have had large trees that exploded when the sap was up and the tree froze. It splits the trunk wide open.
Beautiful silhouetted image and great thought!
Wow!!
Its a amazing shot
I love the colors :)))
What an amazing sky...
Beautifull shots, look so peacefull and relaxing :))
How interesting the image, how intriguing the thought.
Very inventive and creative, Brattcat. I never thought of lightning like that . . . your words are a perfect fit with your image.
What an image! What colour. Love this. So beautifully composed.
