Red face Double Sunset

I took this picture this afternoon at the local park. I was wondering if the "double sunset" was intriguing or distracting?

To be honest I find it distracting and un-natural. I like the horizonal element of the water and the silouhette of the trees.
I think there is some elements in this shot but it only needs one sun..
However, that is only my opinion.

I like the shot but the two suns are too distrating to my eye. We actually have to force our eyes to concentrate on the other beautiful details of the picture.
