I think I'd crop it differently to eliminate the partial trees on both sides. Thoughts?

I think you are on to something here, but I would crop slightly different - on the left side I would still include the smore subdued tree; since the focus should be on the trees with the beautiful highlights, I would not want to crowd that out at the edge of the frame. On the right side of the frame I would crop out the partial tree with the highlights as I feel that tree is a distraction.

Willy, Peter - absolutely spot on. Peter's crop works best, I think. Thanks!

Very nice. The main tree really pops. Great mood.
