the title and image don'twork together for me. maybe Divine, Precious & chosen. as it seems more heavenly than evil to me. I really like the photo without the filter.

Sounds more like a rock group than a movie title to me.

Fascinating shot. Holds my attention. I'm curious about how you created this one. My choice would be to erase that white light on the bottom.
