    Impressive and moody photograph! Love the tree silhouettes with the epicormic shoots towering into the gray winter sky.

    There's a special word for this, not coppicing.

    Not bollard, not mallard but pollard! ;o)

    I also see these trees nearby! :)
    Interesting way that you play with our imagination asking about the branches!
