Really nice contrast of all the various textures. It looks a bit crunchy to me, though - somewhat oversharpened. Also, did you consider a warmer tone? Perhaps it’s cliche of me, but whenever I see sandstone bedding like this, I think of the US desert SW with its reddish formations. You did capture the contrast between the organic shapes and the linear rock; I could see a 4:5 crop of the left to make that contrast even more graphic.
