Actually, I rather like the starburst here.  Much better than the 
bright, prismatic color patches produced by my Tamron 20-40.  But if it 
were mine I'd crop out the chairs at left.  They compete with your 
distant walkers which I take as the main subject.  But I'm not sure if 
I'd retain the 3:2 aspect ratio without trying alternative crops.  The 
blown refection from the tile doesn't bother me.
