Simple and classical and I like it a lot.

It's a fine image. However it looks way oversharpened on my monitor. Perhaps it is meant to be seen large so that it doesn't look so crunchy.

I find the bottom half, with the three trunks, very much more interesting than the upper.

Interesting, John.
The first flaw, which I believed to be of no importance, is that the actual image was reduced to 800x536 pixels (gray mat added later) 240 pixels/inch instead of 72 ppi. I actually do not see any difference in crunchiness.
The original image had been sharpened very slightly before being reduced and no sharpening applied for the LULA version.
So I tried reducing  "Texture" on the foliage, leaving the lighter trunks untouched
But I was not satisfied. I'll take another look

I wouldn't worry about it much. If it looks good on your end that's all that matters. Everything on the net is subject to some kind of compression. The tonal range looks excellent.
