I took a very similar shot to this recently

http://www.flickr.com/photos/jamesfletcher/2966772770/

I found that the totally black foreground meant that the shot lacked depth. I was able to bring the exposure of the foreground up in PP, leaving the people in full silhoutte which added depth and warmth to the shot. Maybe you can do the same. Even easier if you have the RAW file.

I find that being "late" for the sunset if often the best time as the colours are more vivid.
