The Russes at the Cherry Blossoms
In my experience it's parents who are usually behind the camera caputure moments of their children for posterity. I wanted an updated photo of the people who are most important to me. I wanted to caputre this moment of my parents together under the canopy of cherry blossoms. ©Abigail Russ, 2020

The Butterfly
As I was leaving the Knight Hall for the day, which is home to the Philip Merrill College of Journalism, I found this quiet moment of a monarch butterfly sitting on a flower. I especially liked the flowers that were in the background. This photo was taken on an iPhone 7 Plus. ©Abigail Russ, 2021
Phipps Flower Show
The Phipps Spring Flower Show at the Phipps Conservatory in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania is one of my favorite places to take photographs. I liked this quiet moment of a fly landing on a pansy within a sea of the purple flowers. The sun just happened to be in the perfect place as well. ©Abigail Russ, 2021
