William Sutherland's photos

Note: Created from graffiti photographed in Los Angeles, CA Amidst clouds of smoke And pyroclastic rivers A new day awakes. Like the morning dawn The sky shimmers and glows with Red luminescence. Ash coats and lava From volcanic eruptions Renew the Earth’s face. Fuji's sacred fires That both destroy and create Sustain life's cycle. ©2024 – William Sutherland

Las Vegas, NV Note: Created from the abstract pattern of a curtain at Worldmark by Wyndham . The vibrant colors represent the joy and vitality of life. The yellows represent sunshine, the reds represent blood (the substance of life) and the browns and ochres represent the clay of the earth from which we were created. The yellow bar represents the linear time of our life experiences on earth while the yellow circles represent perpetuity and eternity of our spiritual existence to come because of the imperishable nature of life.

Larchmont, NY Created from the official Hostages and Missing Families Forum dog tag. One can only pray the hostages are released soon - Free them now! In the meantime, it is Hamas' sole responsibility to guarantee the safety of each and every hostage without exception. While it's encouraging to see some may still be alive such as Noa Argamani, Yossi Sharabi and Itay Svirsky based on a video clip released 14 January 2024, they and every other hostage need to be home with their families, especially Noa whose mother Liora is terminally ill with cancer. Liora's dying wish is to see her daughter one last time before she passes away.
