Heidi I not speak english, speak spanish, vivo en Colombia - Sur América, soy la mamá de Ginna pollock, hice traducir tu página, quería conocer un poco sobre una ARTISTA DEL ALMA como tú. Me emocioné muchísimo con TODAS tus fotografias son bellísimas! Espero algún día vengas a Colombia podamos disfrutar de este arte tuyo maravilloso. Exitos con tu galería y que así como captas la esencia y haces sentir emociones tan grandes ; se hagan realidad tus sueños.
