Ghost Apple

ACEO on canvas in permanent marker and sharpie white marker

I was watching the weather channel and they spoke about these ghost apples being formed from rotten apples after an ice storm.  When the tree was shaken, the rotten apple fell out of the ice shell leaving the 'ghost' apple shell behind.   I thought it was interesting.  Here is a story on that with a photo.
