Hole in the wall? Here you go:  :)

As for the OP photo: nice. I would be tempted to open up that hole's deep shadows just a bit.

May I suggest a square crop?
IMHO the left and right part of the image are both distracting from the main subject and lacking the "feature richness" of said subject.

I would also add a overlay layer with a circular gradient from white at the center to black at the borders, so to increase the brighness of the certer part and adding some vignetting.
But this may work for me because of my monitor.

Good comments from both Slobodan and Diego.
 It's fascinating, but not in the league with your recent Hoodoos photo.

There is a good picture in there. I think I'd leave it alone for a few weeks and then look at it again through fresh eyes. Cropping and PP options may become more obvious.
