I prefer the B&W rendering.

I like it. The building on the right balances the rocks on the
left, I see an "S" shaped symmetry (with the S on its side) like a
yin-yang mandala to the balance of elements. The tones are nice if
a little too middle-tone ... I'd selectively push a little more
deep black and lighten some areas ... and detailing is fine.
Overall it would be better printed quite large than it appears in
this small web rez view.
A color rendering would be interesting to compare with, to see if
color adds anything significant to the composition.

I don't shoot much scenic stuff and don't do much B&W conversion,
but here's a pano that happens to be both. Queenscliff Beach, the
northern end of Manly.

Shot with the A24/2.8, stitched with Autostitch. I was surprised
that the moving waves didn't prove to be a problem. I quite like
the colour version too, I'll show that if the B&W doesn't work
for people.
Comments?
