Fort Lauderdale - beach

First off the uploaded picture is too big to view(should be 800 pixels on the longest side). I think the centered horizon creates a conflict in the picture. I'm not sure what I should be looking at. The only discernable center of interest is the umbrella, but it's not strong enough to hold my attention. I would suggest finding one or two points of interest. Then compose yourself to best display them with an interesting, but not distracting, background.

Too big to read.

Sorry for the mistake, I have corrected the file size now.

 

Comments welcome.

 

Overall the colors are very eye catching but the subject placements are a bit off. The umbrella draws the eye TOO FAR off from the center of the foto.
