Watch your text, putting them on either side of the focal creates multiple focals which = a no no. I think it would look better b/w ^_^ Blur the sides to get snake more of the main focal. It's not bad, good job ^_^
Text would be good on the one side. Maybe just play around with it. There's a great thread on all of this stuff; it's pinned in the Graphics Discussion section, at least I think it is. But it describes some of the very basics of text. Like Hollastir said, you want to make your focal stand out more. Just a few little things and you should be good.
