What the creator captured

Davud Akhundzada explored the ancient and holy Yazidi site of Lalish, learning about the religion's focus on nature and the four elements. He was particularly struck by the specific rituals required for entry, such as avoiding the marble threshold, and the daily lighting of 365 oil lamps. The experience provided him with a rare, respectful look into a faith that has survived for over 4,000 years.
