A narrower cottonwood

Cottonwoods are common where I live and at the two places I usually go to see trees (the bike path and Peebles Island). The cottonwoods I usually see usually have thick trunks. At the orchard, I saw a cottonwood with a narrower trunk. Maybe that means it is a younger tree than the other cottonwoods I have seen. I'm not usually fond of cottonwoods, but I thought this one had a grace to it.
