First thing I notice is the lack of blending between the two images. Try taking a fairly large brush eraser (say 100px) that has a soft edge and erase some of the black & white image's edge. That would bring the two images together.

Secondly, the black & white doesn't really mesh with the colour well. Again, this may have to do with the lack of blending, but try desaturating both images, then recolorizing them to the same hue. You can also try duplicating the image layers and changing their blending to something like Color Dodge or Overlay. Tinkering around is the best method.

Lastly, the text is kinda plain, but it's better than huge bevels and horrible outer glows. biggrin:

Keep at it. The only way to get better is to practice.
