I really see no room between the base of the tree and the frame edge. As I read your first post, you suggested I remove the space between the edge and the tree and leave "whatever remains of the tree." For me, it's uncomfortably close as is. As I would guess you are aware, if any element of an image is close to the frame edge it tends to "connect." Thanks for commenting.
