Reminds me of "my" trees ... I "have" a row of trees by the side of a field here, too, that I go back to for photos at regular intervals. Only mine are a conifer kind. Not this bare.
All our trees here are as bare and as much WAITING (like myself!!!!) for spring to arrive ... but it will be another 2 months before we shall see some REAL change in nature, ok, make it 6 weeks... I hope!)
I really like your composition here, that foremost tree just reads "right corner of a frame", and you saw that so well. Conversion and toning add to the photo, too.
