What can I do to make this shot more interesting? I only have a crappy 7.1 MP Fujifilm piece of shit, but I prefer content over resolution.

Shoot around 4 or 5pm when the sun sets and it's partly cloudy
that way you'll get a nice warm glow accross the ground and some intense dramatic shadows
i'd also hold the camera vertically

that would make this shot look better

Picture's a good background with no foreground. Put a subject in it.

Also, like Beethy said, sunrise/sunset light is way prettier.

Also also, curves and unsharp mask (pic related)
