A tree with a space for rent

I like the detail but the overexposed area to the right is troubling.

You can easily drop the highlights in the blown area and do a bit of cloning if wanted where that wire or fence line shows up. There's a bit of CA that's easily sorted as well.

Having a bright, overexposed area that is near the edge of an image is generally problematic. The human visual system is keyed to areas of brightness and areas of high contrast and if they are near the edge of an image, they tend to pull the viewer's eyes out of the image.

Assuming that what you have shown is close to what was captured; we are seeing crushed shadow details and clipped highlights. The scene exceeds the camera's dynamic range.

Could the image be repaired? Possibly, but it would require a sky replacement as well as fixing up a lot of the hot spots as there are in other places. When I take the image into Photoshop, I see a lot of areas of with a value of 255. Selecting those areas (and values close to that) will result in the clipped areas turning from white to gray. That tends to result in a strange looking sky, given what the light looks like in the rest of the image. I would probably suggest a reshoot when the light is better, if that is possible.

If the "space for rent" is that hole at the bottom of the trunk, Ed, then a big crop would likely fix everything.

Otherwise, a trip back to shoot again, per Manfred's comment. Not mentioned yet, the branches/twigs high up are suffering from what looks like veiling flare or CA or summat. My m4/3 Panasonic Vario 14-45mm does that a lot ...
