Tree id

I'm considering naming my house. There is this view from the top window and would like to name the house after this view. The name TreeTop View came to mind, but if I can capture the species/name of the tree, that would be preferable. Thank you in advance.

From the distance it appears to be a White Oak, Quercus alba. A beautiful example of the species. Would be a great tree to climb.

@oldoakman - thanks for the identification. I'll if I can get closer for more a more sharper image.

Is that your tree?

Certainly closer picture would help. Bark, buds, any acorns or leaves on the ground can help

White oak or related here as well.

Could be White oak, Bur oak, Chinkapin oak, Swamp white oak...

 

[oldoakman]

I'm going to stay with White Oak. Bur Oak is also a possibility. Either one are awesome trees and this one is no different.

 

[naturistenquirying]

There are other trees in the vicinity that also look like varieties of oak, is my assertion correct here?

 

[oldoakman]

The main one in photo 0049 looks like it could be sugar maple. The other 2 appear to be oaks. Closer photos would be beneficial.

Doesn't english oak, quercus robur, have that same curvy branch structure like a white oak? It's white oak family. There was a brit series called "The Detectorists" and they used to hang out under an english oak.
