I kept looking at this and thinking the umbrella was actually a stop sign...

I think this is the only one that I didn't comment on.
Well, now that that's rectified... :P

Beautiful landscape, the lighting is stunning. Not sure about the positioning and the lighting of the umbrella though

It took me a few moments to realise where the umbrella was in this composition when it came up - my first impression of it was that it was a form of octagonal black stop sign - which slowed the viewing down so as to study it. By definition a portal is a doorway or entrance which is usually imposing and this fits quite well. I like the rest of the photograph also - the cloudscape & the reflection in the water; the textures of the earthen road leading up to the bridge and the lines of the backstop & guardrails.
I would go where this beckons.

I would have liked to grade this higher, I like the concept a lot. The image is just a little too dark for me to focus o the umbrella or really any focal point. Nice concept though.

I like your processing, would like to see the same shot without the umbrella blocking the great view!

Stunning landscape/sky capture!!!!
Pity the umbrella isn't a brighter colour to make it stand out.
