Branches Against the Sky

Brief

In this contest I would like to see your photos of the branch of a tree or large shrub against a fairly clear sky. Please no more than three branches and no tree trunks in the photo. There should be nothing else in the background to the branches except sky, although there can be some clouds in the sky. The branches can be either bare, with blossom, leaves or fruit. Please no animals or people in the photo. The photos can be in colour or black and white. No abstracts please. I am looking forward to seeing your photos.
