Superb take on the Punchbowl. Dramatic and interesting B & W. Maybe a little CCW rotation?

This is a nice take on an iconic Oregon formation.  Good BW.  I'd like to see a little more foreground to the front of the oncoming wave.

Daniel, my first impression was that I'd like to see a little more on the bottom. I noticed you were at the widest 16mm, so maybe a downward tilt of the lens if you repeat, or a vertical stitch. The larger images shows nice detail in the wall.

I'm in agreement that a little more on the bottom would make it feel a little more balanced.  I'm not a fan of cutting off rocks on the bottom in this case, though I'm not sure of what alternatives there migh have..  I do like the BW treatment.
