To me it looks too tightly framed. I would suggest moving back or zooming out a bit to get all of the tree in. I would also suggest putting the trunk off-centre for a more dynamic effect. An interesting looking tree; it's got possibilities. Maybe try a very low angle too - ground level, easily done if you have a flip-out screen so you can hold the camera low without kneeling in the dirt.
I agree, it is cropped too tight in camera. If possible, go back and take all kinds of photos like he suggests. The tree provides endless possibilities. Wish I had it in my territory.
