hmmm... all the elements are looking very nice. i think one problem is the focus. you might want to try to crop or rotate the scene so there is less landscape and the figures take up more of the picture space. (it would be interesting, for example, to see the view from the right, looking down the lady's body and seeing the guy past the sword.) if you like this setup, the composition still has some focal problems. the sword, for example, is pointing out of the picture, leading our eye off to... the links at the right ;) nothing on the man points towards the lady... try to create some kind of circular path for the eye to follow around between the guy and the lady. if is left hand were pointing down towards the water, for example, that would lead the eye there. i would also see how it looks if there was that patch of empty sky behind the man instead of the mountain. and the sky... i would like the sky to be more dramatic and active looking to go with the mood of the scene. the sky is looking all bright and ordinary while the scene is kinda mysterious and magical. ya know? :) did that help?
