Excellent use of the stump for subject. This is the type of thing that sinks many otherwise excellent landscapes - lack of a discernible subject. Great job on the technicals too.
7 - Nice scene and colors and composition. Could just be a visual thing, but looks like it needs the slightest nudge up on the right. Bit more detail discernible in the fore - stump, grasses and water, likely make this even better as well, in my opinion. The seemingly 'blown' light/white areas - a bit more subtle (difficult when it's gone) and more 'natural' looking than as is, which is almost bordering on a surreal type of effect in those areas - which still makes for a unique image.
So pretty and clean. Fabulous colors and beautiful gradient in the sky. Such cool stumps (the one in the foreground might be ever so slightly too close to the camera IMO) but a great shot. Back to bump you up to 9.
Interesting. I'd be intrigued to know why you didn't shoot the area with more of these things. This is just fine as it stands - a suitably odd subverting of a normally pretty landscape - but it's clear from this image that there were several other options. One stump is interesting - more than one ...
