What is wrong...

...with this picture:

1. The saddle is slightly too far back for an English saddle.

2. The rider doesn't know how to sit a buck in an English saddle. She's grabbing for a horn that isn't there - oops. (She admits in her comments that she hasn't done much English - so I feel I can tease a little). The trick is to make a bridge with your reins and brace against the withers that way.

3. When dismounting from an English saddle, my friend, you take both feet out of the stirrups. English stirrups turn more readily than western ones, and if you keep a foot in you will - as this girl did - poke the horse in the side.

What is right with this picture?

The rider, who knows this horse (a rescue) has issues, is wearing not just a helmet but a protective vest. She has somebody working with her. She's mounting from a block, not the ground (I might have used a three step block, but they may not have one).

And, above all, per the comments, she is not blaming the horse.
