I live in apple and soft fruit country and they do this on purpose during a cold snap. The ice actually produces enough heat to preserve the buds. Nice photo by the way.
nice one. Looks delicious. People in my family are fond of freezing grapes and blueberries and eating them as a snack. I do kinda agree with the post about the background being on the busy side. I imagine it was an overcast day, but it would have been cool to see the frozen branch against a blue sky, or gray if that's what one happens to have. Great Shot anyway.
This is a beautiful photo. I like the background because all the prickly sparkles of the tiny icesickles support the photo -- it reminds us of the bigger picture of the ice storm itself. The cold ice makes such a wonderful contrast to this pretty, plump berry frozen in time.
