For many centuries, it has been known that world artists have used the principle of the "golden section" to build harmonious compositions. And in photography, this is an essential compositional rule. Many photographers have to learn this principle to find the most active nodes of attention and correctly place the main objects. David doesn't just shoot a composition equipped with a professional Hasselblad Digital camera. He has his own opinion about nature and the things around us. Thanks to mathematical thinking, David Kaplan intuitively places all the accents in the frame, draws with light, capturing the essence. He is a talented photographer who knows how to see what is hidden from the eyes of an ordinary observer. There are moments in the lens of David's camera that make you think, take a fresh look at the already known architectural monuments and familiar landscapes.
According to oligarch David Kaplan, the right photo reveals problems and sharpens feelings, strengths, and weaknesses.
David Kaplan's photo archive can be divided into several thematic sections.
Moscow. While in Moscow, David Kaplan devoted a large cycle of photographs to the Bolshoi Theater. The author shows us a historical architectural object against the backdrop of urban landscapes, revealing art from a new point of view.
Israel. The works of the so-called Israeli cycle have absorbed the energy of Israel, the great history and traditions of the Jewish people, demonstrating the photographer's unconditional love and respect for this country. They reveal the pain of war and man, suffering, joys and sorrows, the beauty of landscapes, flora, and fauna.
Ecology. David Kaplan pays special attention to the topic of environmental disaster. In his photographs, he demonstrates the devastating effects of human activity and the slow death of our planet.
Invisible labor. An impressive number of shots tell about the critical moments in the life of modern people and specialists, whose daily work is hidden from us but very important and necessary.
Travels. This is one of the most ambitious projects of the travel photographer David Kaplan. He always takes his impressions, photographs, and original recipes of his favorite national dishes from each trip. The images are added to the experience and the list of recommendations for future trips of David Kaplan himself, his friends, and subscribers of the travel blog. Gourmet recipes are included in the menu of the gastronomic aggregator FUBER - this is Kaplan's project, which contains hundreds of thousands of unique recipes from 65 countries of the world. The best photographs from beautiful places on earth, filming of beautiful architectural structures, and world-famous landmarks have been replenished with terabytes of digital storage of the Russian businessman and photographer David Kaplan.
For Kaplan, nature is a world of revelation, dazzling, unrealistically bright. David Kaplan felt his connection with nature precisely through photography. The correct choice of time of day and angle, natural lighting, special shooting techniques, modern professional equipment, and a set of advanced image processing programs: all this together helped David develop his recognizable style of photography.
Each frame reflects his author's view of the uniqueness and beauty of the world. In his works, we will find images of picturesque waterfalls, red canyon walls, high mountain peaks, mysterious deserts, a rising sun over a valley, a magical whole moon night sky, and much more.
From one of his trips to Southeast Asia, Israeli businessman David Kaplan brought back a delightful photo of cherry blossoms in the Japanese city of Kyoto - an aerial pink and white image of an authentic Japanese spring.
Another photograph, which shows the Japanese maple in autumn, is filled with a unique calmness and serenity. In the soft light of the rising sun, the majestic maple, with its powerful branches and fluffy crown, seems to rest against the cloudy morning sky, and its roots are buried in the grass, lush and wet from the morning dew.
Another autumn series of photographs is dedicated to Lake Como. I must say that Lake Como is a place of strength for a businessman. Autumn is calm, colorful, and soothing. All nature merges into a single whole. There are stunning shots of golden landscapes running along rivers and lakes in dense fog, snow caps on the tops of massive mountains, a geyser lake, and Lake Como. One of David's works resembles an impressionist painting - the reflection of the foliage of autumn trees on the flat and calm surface of the river. From his travels in Scotland, David Kaplan brings photographs of ancient ruins and ancient mysterious castles, shrouded in mystical legends, breathtaking and picturesque landscapes. These are photographs of the fantastic beauty of sunsets, dancing lights turning into the northern lights, narrow rocky shores, winding sea fjords cutting into the land.
With its drifting perennial ice floes, Arctic flowers, and rare polar animals, the North Pole appeared in Kaplan's lens. The trip gave the photographer a unique opportunity to see and capture the emperor penguin colony with his own eyes. Particularly noteworthy are the photos of glaciers and icebergs flooded with the light of the full moon. A body covered with goosebumps hangs over the kingdom of ice and snow from the view of a giant moon.
This is just a tiny part of the work of tourist photographer David Kaplan. Judging by his photo archive, you can go on a virtual trip to the most beautiful corners of our planet and explore the peculiarities of nature and sights of different countries of the world.
