I really like this photo for the CD cover too.
On the text, I'm not a graphics design authority but one issue bothers
me: the text is collectively neither right-aligned nor left-aligned, nor
centered. "Vibrations" and "Paul Miles" are right-aligned with each
other, but "Healing" floats above in a visually random position. The
simplest fix I think would be to slide Healing over to right-align it
too. I have no problem with where you positioned it. I do think it may
end up too small to easily read on a CD cover.
The other quibble that maybe bugs Darren is the face you used. It looks
a lot like a clone of Comic Sans Bold, which is one of the most reviled
typefaces in history.

But honestly, I think it works here since you are setting a friendly,
informal tone, which I assume mirrors the music inside.

Thanks Darren.
Where would you have placed the type? I purposely left room for it in the
grass, where there is minimal detail. It also balances the bright flowers in
the other corner, IMO.

Nice photo! (However, whoever chose the font and lettering
placement/alignment should be taken out and shot... and I don't mean
with a camera.)
