After the storm

Still wet and just off the easel...I have been demonstrating waves recently and when I found this old photo of the Ucluelet area, on the West Coast of the Island;  I wanted to try and capture  the energy of the waves... I  thought I may need to mask out the whites, but chose not to use frisket.  I wanted to try to paint around the the whites... I am pleased with the result, but in the end I did add a bit of gouache...but only a bit...

let me know your thoughts on the piece...any and all comments are appreciated...be ruthless!  I need to know if this piece is worthy of putting in a show?
