Well, John Tobias, I also think it looks interesting :) especiallly in the larger view and how that ice-o-lates the subjects.
So what we have here, in my view, is three levels of impermanance;
First there is the form of the ice; here today, gone tomorrow; melting and changing form as it was photographed in that moment.
Yet an imagined extention of that moment in which the ice is melting; soon to fall off the branch.
And then, the buds to open and flower, and then, soon, to fall off the branch.
And then, the branch itself to fall, soon.
And then we, who observe this....

Your image tells a good story, John, about the how mother nature can get awfully confused. Good capture of the buds and ice.
