It's a tough shot. Modulo this is my home linux monitor, but the grass
looks like it might be a bit light, the outside part of the stump
looks quite a bit over exposed and the inside is a bit under.
So you've got sun on something white and something coal black in the
shade. That could be tough.
Have you tried just going with it and letting the inside of the stump
go all black? What about using a strobe or a fill reflector? A
reflective windshield shade or two might be just about right.
Or, you could try lighting some magnesium and dropping that down into
the hole in the middle of the stump. :)
Alternatively, you could try the Savage approach and come back at
night with strobes, and light it however you like.
If you're having fun shooting it, who cares if any of the shots turn
out?
