Thank you for taking the time to view my photos. My name is Celine Pollard and I am an avid Irish photographer. I am now residing in Canada after being in Ireland from 2006 to 2014. Previous to that I lived in the USA for 11 years. I travel frequently to Montana and Oregon where my family live. My photos reflect the love I have for travel and nature. I hope to continue to add to my albums as my travels continue. Enjoy.
