Louella Lester – Seeing and learning while holding camera and pen between me and the world.
Jamie and I walked downtown for lunch a couple of weeks ago. I asked him to point out 10 things for me to photograph on the trip there and another 10 on the trip back. Here are the 10 photos from the trip there. Enjoy! My book, Glass Bricks, is available through your local bookstores, …
I’m still playing around with the new camera and playing around with the editing afterwards. Here are shots taken as I wandered along the sidewalk, not far from my place, one morning before it got too hot. Enjoy! My book, Glass Bricks, is available through your local bookstores, on Amazon (paperback/digital), or from my publisher …

I wandered about my apartment building one day and took photos of things that were kind of ugly and maybe a bit messy. When I edited them I just overexposed them. And I think they look kind of pretty now. Enjoy! My book, Glass Bricks, is available through your local bookstores, on Amazon (paperback/digital), or …
One evening, I saw a strong flash of lightning through the blinds on my living room window. I took the camera out to the balcony and set it on continuous shot, hoping to catch some photos of lightning. Foiled once again! Not one flash once I was out there, just loud thunder, and then heavy …

This is the third season in a series of graphic stories, which I photographed and wrote starting in 2015 or so. I serialized each season of adventures by creating daily posts on Facebook. They developed a bit of a following, haha, and I have now decided to put them together as blog posts on this …
I love big flowers that are made up of what looks like a bunch of little flowers, so I love hydrangeas. I went in close. Didn’t worry when the wind made the shots blur a bit. Love how the light makes some petals go almost translucent. Enjoy! My book, Glass Bricks, is available through your …
One evening, a little while ago, a big thunderstorm was trying to happen, the type where clouds build and shift dramatically and the thunder is loud, but nothing much actually happens. For someone, like me, who loves thunderstorms that can be a bit of a disappointment. But I enjoyed the clouds and I hope you …
On our way to lunch, one sunny day, we took a shortcut through the area behind the Winnipeg Art Gallery (WAG) and I got some shots of various buildings, including the back of the new addition to the gallery. I love architecture and, even though I don’t necessarily want to hangout or live in minimalistic …

Like I said in my last post, I have a new little camera. It’s a small step up from my old one, but still my style: small and simple. So, I’m playing with it and learning more. Here are some macro shots, that aren’t perfect, but I like them. Enjoy! My book, Glass Bricks, is …
I bought a new camera. It’s not too fancy. It's still a small one, the way I like cameras to be, that can fit in a pocket while I’m walking or dangle from my wrist when I’m riding my bicycle. The zoom is a bit better. I’ve been learning more about it. Playing with it. …
