I'm falling for you

This idea struck me when I was playing chess with my friend. The queen is leaning towards the king, showing her love for him. I shot this against sunset to make the photo look romantic.

Or cropping the right one might move both monarchs over, too. Good creativity.

Nice colours and silhouette. Could do with a bit of a crop of the left. The exposure is good too. My only criticism is the jpeg artifacts which can be seen. (Probably due to the resizing and file size loss). Nice shot though!
