The tilted horizon is distracting to me. Nice cool colours

Nice color palette and cool tones. The tilted horizon and distant island coming off the subject's head isn't working for me though.

To be frank, I feel like I've seen this shot many many times before. As such, it makes the expectations a bit high. I find a few things to be bothersome, the island is a bit tight on the females head, and the tilted horizon makes me feel a bit dizzy. Romance and chivalry is for women, and I think I would have preferred to see her expression of being woo'd as opposed to his, (or both if you could have managed). I do like that the water looks refreshing, and the sky has a good bit of saturation

I would've voted higher if the horizon was straight.
