Sunset on Waikiki beach, Hawaii

Please comment regarding the composition. I am not sure if placing the coconut tree in the

middle of the frame ruins the scene.

Thanks

Im not one to always stick to the rules in this case having all of the palms foliage in the frame looks nice, but its the trunk that makes it kind of strange. you have suffered from noise a bit and possible a bit of dust on your sensor, or lens, but the scene is lovely with the beautiful colours of the sunset and just a couple of people on the beach.

There's nothing wrong with the tree in the centre. Your composition could compliment your subject a bit more though.

 

I've cropped and straightned my interpetation.

 

I like the image, it has a nice atmosphere.
