Pardon my puzzle! I'm unsure what you're seeing as the frame. Is it the branches or the slight vignette around the edges?

However, I'm glad you like it.

That old moon hasn't changed in decades (maybe longer) but the branches frame it nicely to add depth and interest. A skyline or tree line gives great perspective to a night sky as well.

As troublesome as it was shooting through those branches, they sure did add depth and interest.
