The vertical puts more emphasis on the tree and landscape shows the area around it. To me, both are really good. Just depends on you.

I think that combination of yellow/orange/red is sensational - and these shots are as well 🔴🟠🟡🟠🔴
Nice shots - but open to rule of thirds?

Landscape for me. If the red tree had more colored leaves on it I might say portrait.
I might suggest a combination of the two - the landscape image with some cropping on the right side would emphasize the tree but still give a sense of space. This is IMHO only!
Nice, I like the first one.
Oddly, I find the landscape more of a portrait of the tree! I guess I find the growth behind the subject more distracting in #1, while the only distraction in #2 is the building. Of course, maybe #1 and your discussion set me up to see the portrait in #2. The human mind is a strange place, and mine in particular.
