css tooltip position is not fixed

I have created a tooltip using CSS. When I hover on the image gets displayed but the position is not fixed; it depends on the size of the image.

Here is the HTML:

   <section class="col col-2">
                  <input type="file" id="imgupload" accept="image/*" onchange="angular.element(this).scope().uploadFile(this)" style="display:none"
                  />
                  <div class="pointer  imagewh">

                      <img type="image" data-ng-src="{{currIcon}}" ng-click="icon()" class="responsive" />

                    <span class="tooltiptext">Upload Icon</span>
                  </div>
                </section>

Here is the CSS: 

 .pointer img {
        cursor: pointer;
        position: relative;
        display: inline-block;
        margin-bottom: 7px;
    }

    .pointer .tooltiptext {
        visibility: hidden;
        width: 120px;
        background-color: black;
        color: #fff;
        text-align: center;
        border-radius: 6px;
        padding: 5px 0;
        position: absolute;
        z-index: 1;
    }

    .pointer:hover .tooltiptext {
        visibility: visible;
    }

.responsive {
        max-width: 100%;
        height: auto;
    }    

.imagewh{
text-align:center;
width: 110px;
height: 110px;
}
.imagewh img{
position:relative;
top:50%;
transform: translateY(-50%);
}

enter image description here enter image description here

When I made the image responsive, the tooltip position keeps changing with each respective size of the images. How to make the position fixed? Please help me with this.

Here is my solution, Its not perfect, but it will give you a good staring point.

Basically I made the pointer div position:relative, and the tooltip position:absolute and also changed visibility:none to display:none.

Visiblilty just hides the div, but the element still occupies space in the DOM. display:none completely hides the div along with the space

And when you hover over the pointer div, I make the tooltip display:block

I removed the 

*{box-sizing:border-box;}

body{padding:100px;}

.pointer{
position:relative;}

.pointer img {
  cursor: pointer;
  position: relative;
  display: inline-block;
  margin-bottom: 7px;
    width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
}

.pointer .tooltiptext {
  display:none;
  width: 120px;
  background-color: black;
  color: #fff;
  text-align: center;
  border-radius: 6px;
  padding: 5px 0;
  position: absolute;
  z-index: 1;
  top:-30px;
  left:50%;
  transform:translateX(-50%);
}

.pointer:hover .tooltiptext {
  display:block;
}

.responsive {
  max-width: 100%;
  height: auto;
}

.imagewh {
  text-align: center;
  width: 110px;
  height: 110px;
  border:1px solid black;/*for testing purpose*/
}
.bigimage{
 width: 210px;
 height: 210px;
}
<div class="pointer  imagewh">
  <img type="image" data-ng-src="https://placehold.it/100x100" class="responsive" />
  <span class="tooltiptext">Upload Icon</span>
</div>
<br/><br/>
<div class="pointer  imagewh bigimage">
  <img type="image" data-ng-src="https://placehold.it/200x200" class="responsive" />
  <span class="tooltiptext">Upload Icon</span>
</div>

.pointer img {
     cursor: pointer;
     position: relative;
     display: inline-block;
     margin-bottom: 7px;
}
 .pointer .img-box {
     position:relative;
}
 .pointer .tooltiptext {
     visibility: hidden;
     width: 120px;
     background-color: black;
     color: #fff;
     text-align: center;
     border-radius: 6px;
     padding: 5px 0;
     position: absolute;
     z-index: 1;
}
 .img-box:hover .tooltiptext {
     visibility: visible;
     right: calc( 0% - 60px);
     top: -30px;
}
 .responsive {
     max-width: 100%;
     height: auto;
}
 .imagewh{
     text-align:center;
     width: 110px;
     height: 110px;
}
 .imagewh img{
     position:relative;
}
 
<br>
<br>


<div class="pointer  imagewh">
  <div class="img-box">
    <img src="https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSLsza5efhXDC69Ka0TuAMa1bfm2tbtUHXKVSKn3yzgVoiXbu6A" class="responsive" />
    <span class="tooltiptext">Upload Icon</span>
  </div>
</div>

Try this. It works fine.
