Vertical-align in Nested Column
As Kid Diamond stated in a comment, your HTML has errors - 5 of them.  You can validate it by running it through the W3C validator.

First off, you need a DOCTYPE so browsers know which version of HTML you are using - the latest is simply &lt;!DOCTYPE html&gt;

Second, img elements need alt attributes so screen readers, search engines, and other computer programs can make sense of them:

&lt;img src= "http://static.jsbin.com/images/jsbin_static.png" alt="image description"&gt;


Finally, you forgot to close one of your divs - the div around the img element.

Your CSS has no errors at the W3C CSS validator.
