Position div inside a image (responsive)

I have a problem (obviously). I have to position a element to be always on the right side of a image. But I can't use the img-Tag as a container. Also I'm using bootstrap, which makes it impossible to set a fixed width for the container.

Small example jsFiddle

<div id="container" class="col-lg-3">
  <div class="positioning">
      Some Text
  </div>
  <img src="http://placehold.it/300x200/eeeeee" />
</div>

I hope that is understandable

EDIT: Basically I want the image to behave like a container, without using "background-image"

An absolutely positioned element will always be positioned relating to it's parent that has 'position: relative'. Here is a good example http://learnlayout.com/position.html

So if you wrap the and the content inside a div and position it relatively, then you can position the content absolutely inside it. Then, you just need to make the display: block; and width 100% so the will fill the whole container.

.container {
    position: relative;
}
.container img {
    display: block;
    width: 100%;
}
.container .content {
    position: absolute;
    bottom: 10px;
    right: 10px;
}

Here's an example: http://jsfiddle.net/kbzvyjy9/

Hope that solves your issue.

I think the <figure> tag is the best solution here.

Wrap the image and the caption in a div with position: relative like in this Fiddle

html 

<div id="container" class="col-lg-3">
    <div class="img-container">
        <div class="positioning">
            Some Text
        </div>
        <img src="http://placehold.it/300x200/eeeeee" />
    </div>
</div>

CSS

.col-lg-3{
    width: 25%;
    min-width: 230px;
    float: left;
    position: relative;
    min-height: 1px;
    padding-left: 15px;
    padding-right: 15px;
    background-color: #aaa;
    text-align: center;
}
.col-lg-3 img {
    max-width: 100%;
}
.img-container {
    display: inline-block;
    position: relative;
}
.positioning{
    position: absolute;
    right: 15px;
    bottom: 22px;
    background-color: red;
    color: white;
    padding: 4px;
    font-size: 17px;
    line-height: 18px;
}

You can use the float property and set it to right.

style="float:right";
