This is a marvelous use of not one but three prompts (probably a record!). What an eerie image of the transformation from heavenly to hellish.

So LJ finally lets me comment! Pah! And I don't need to see all my icons, an alphabetical keyword will suffice thank you very much!

Ahem... rant over, thanks for the comment. I was planning to write a set of three, then realised with this image I could meet the criteria in one go... hence three seemed a touch excessive. ;)

What an excellent way to catch up - I can feel it and hear it, as well as see it, from your description.

Oh even better - the pissed-off cat icon I chose has now gone to the head of my list of icons (after the default), which presumably means the order will be constantly changing and I'll never be able to find the one I want! LJ... you stink!!

Thanks for the techie tip btw - since I haven't done anything and can now post here, when it was shutting me out before... I suppose that means LJ has tinkered with its whatevers. I'll check the other places I couldn't get into, because I admit, I looked and I couldn't see where I could go to make the switch you suggested. *shakes head* I is not a clever person when it comes to these things. ~_^

And finally.... thanks for the comment *G* I'm peased you enjoyed it.

Excellent! I just love what you did here and how you combined the prompts into a clearly envisioned tableau.

Wow, that is awesome. Like others said, great incorporation of all three prompts. Very atmospheric.

Thanks! The incorporation was almost accidental, but having realised I could do three in one... it seemed silly not to. ;)
