The priest who chose the inscription in the French church must have been a joker ;) The quote is from Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy.

I like the feel of an old creepy movie in this photo, or perhaps from Young Frankenstein )). It was one of my top scores. Congrats on your ribbon Margaret!

i personally think its the complete opposite ..
but i'm really liking your image and your treatment ..
the vignette really works .. lighting up the centre of the scene .. creating a quite hopeful feeling .. like a welcome .. :)
