For today’s installment of AP’s Worldview: Daily Life series, we focus on Russia.
Today’s gallery features a celebration of the Slavic pagan holiday of Ivan Kupala, Moscow transit commuters, and the early rising sun over the Ob River. Our photographers capture Russia’s everyday, exploring the people, traditions, and daily activities that help define it.
