This grouping of trees might need a little work. The bone structure isn't quite so pleasing and doesn't play off the split rail fence to best effect. It isn't so noticeable when everything is green. Winter would probably be a good time to look at the tree's bone structure. Is it a no no to prune trees in the winter? I have never had to think about such a thing before.

These trees along one of the ponds on a posh estate are much more pampered than ours.

They even show up well as a reflection.

One day some of my trees may be pampered. I'll put it on my list. Pamper the trees.

But what if they don't want to be pampered? Just kidding, I'm sure every tree could use a pedi now and then! ;-)
The general guideline I follow on pruning trees is don't do it when the tree is frozen. My favorite time for tree trimming is either early in the spring, on a warm late February or March day, or summer time. But usually not in the fall. Dead branches can be cut at any time.
