First Attempt - PhotoCamel

Hi,
Would like opinions on the "framing" - color, size, etc. and on the titling. Would appreciate any opinions or recommendations. The shot was just out of camera - an image to work with. TIA

Personally, I tend to try to match a color in the composition for "framing" these types of shots. If I'm looking for a lighter matte, I might get close to the lighter rocks or some of the lighter greens in this one. I'm not a big fan of pure white mattes for landscapes, although I'll admit I've used them in the past.

Composition-wise, this would look a lot better with sunrise light compared to mid-day.

Is this for online presentation, or for printing? For print, it looks fine, for online, I tend to agree with brian.
