African Savanna through the eyes of Dmitry Fridman
On Thursday July 26th at the gallery "Galereya na Solyanke" the exhibition of photos dedicated to African flora and fauna "Savanna" by Dmitry Fridman was opened. Most of the photographs exhibited at the gallery were made within 2004-2006 in the National Parks of Tanzania: Manyara, Serengeti and Conservation area of Ngorongoro.
"I wanted to show all the beauty of these countries and all the variety of their wild animals. These photos can be also considered my return to childhood when I was looking forward to every series of the program "V mire givotnyh" (In the world of animals) and was enchanted by the life of African savanna", - the author says.
It's obvious that Dmitry has managed to execute his plans. His photos are very realistic and each picture has its own history. After looking at the photo for some minutes you begin feeling the light wind of savanna, warm glaring sun and your pulse beating in the rhythm of African drums. If you visit this exhibition you 'll not be able to be indifferent any more and you'll certainly decide to go to Africa, this mysterious and such a different continent.
The exposition will be open till the 25 th of August
