Default Cancun Sunset, wall worthy?

I was thinking of putting this photo on my wall in my new apartment. I really like it, but looking at some pictures on here I feel like its not that great. Is the subject interesting. Does the sunset in the backround look to orange? I feel like the picture has a blueish tint...? And any tips anyone could give about how to improve this photo would be greatly appreciated. I trust everones opinion on here

I quite like this photo, the distant buildings look neat and the foreground is very nice.

Yep...wall worthy.

I do understand what you mean with the tint, but it doesn't look that bad. If you shot it in RAW, you could try adjusting the white balance. Otherwise, try some different tinting and see what happens.

One other thing...it looks like the horizon might be crooked just a very little bit.

Nice shot!
