Louella Lester – Seeing and learning while holding camera and pen between me and the world.
In the last week of August, I enjoyed visiting The Leaf, in Winnipeg’s Assiniboine Park, to see tropical rainforest and mediterranean flowers/plants, but I’ve always loved architecture, so the design of the building itself interested me, as well. The Leaf is like a huge greenhouse with many interesting lines and angles. So, I took a …
This post is full of flowers that live at The Leaf, in Winnipeg’s Assiniboine Park. Some of these flowers are fluffy or puffy, as though they suddenly appeared, poof! Others aren’t puffy or fluffy, but look like they may have suddenly come out in bunches overnight, poof! Enjoy! If you go to the Published Writing …
At the very end of the summer some friends and I went to The Leaf, which has replaced the old conservatory in Winnipeg’s Assiniboine Park. There is a Tropical Rainforest biome, a Mediterranean biome, a butterfly garden, etc. We were there on a day when it was cooler and there was cloud cover, so the …
I’m lying in bed and listening to the morning news on the radio and they say it’s foggy in Winnipeg. Oh no, now I have to make a decision. Should I roll over and go back to sleep because I was up too late reading a good book? I’m tired. Should I get up and, …

As I’ve mentioned before, I like photos of stark and minimalistic type architecture, though that isn’t necessarily where I want to live or work. A few weeks back, I went for a wander down the back lanes near my place and I was excited to see the back of a new apartment building in the …
Is there anyone who doesn’t like to look at water droplets on long grasslike plants? Here are some photos of them for you to enjoy. If you go to the Published Writing & Photos page (in this blog menu) you can find links to my published writing and photos, as well as information about my …
Let’s just enjoy the leaves. If you go to the Published Writing & Photos page (in this blog menu) you can find links to my published writing and photos, as well as information about my book, Glass Bricks (paperback & digital) published by https://atbaypress.com/books/detail/glass-bricks.
I’ve always like dandelions, even when they’ve gone to seed. Memories of blowing the seeds and fluff into the air. Standing straight and tall on those slim and sturdy stems. Bald, but fringed, little heads. A friend and I were walking over the Donald Bridge (Midtown) a couple of weeks ago and saw a big …
