We don't want to crush your spirit and enthusiasm mate
But ok ... I think the composition in general is a bit weak ... there's nothing that really strikes me and hold my attention here. But I wasn't going to mention this as I was pleased to see you eliminate a featureless sky and tell us how you also eliminated foreground distractions as well.
To improve this I would have shot from the side more and focused more on one of the logs with some frost on them or something and allow the others to fade into the blur to create a contrast to the featured log(s).

So pick out an interesting detail, focus on that and use a wide aperture?

Next time we get a good hoar frost, I will do exactly that.
I am going to bring a ladder so I can cross the blackberry bush and have my way with the pile.

Make sure you alone ... someone might think having your way with a pile could be a tad perverted
