Louella Lester – Seeing and learning while holding camera and pen between me and the world.
We had lots of snow in Winnipeg in December. I threw a bunch of stuff in a bag and went outside. I stuck the stuff in different piles of fresh snow. Here are the results. Enjoy! If you go to the Published Writing & Photos page (in the menu above) you can find links to …
A friend and I wandered about just before Christmas and I took lots of photos I don’t use a fancy camera because I prefer to just focus on what my eye sees. Sometimes I like to shake the little camera to make abstract shots. And I find it especially interesting to do when I’m outside …
😊 Who doesn’t like fresh fluffy snow? 😊 So, here you go. 😊 Enjoy! If you go to the Published Writing & Photos page (in the menu above) 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.
As you know, I like wandering down back lanes because backyards and the back of buildings give you a whole different feel for a neighbourhood. They're much more interesting. Much less groomed.

I walk around and ride my bike, a lot, because I got rid of my car in 2017. I never miss owning a vehicle or the big expense that involves. I now save a lot of money, and help out the environment, as a member of Peg City Car Co-op, a car sharing cooperative here …

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, …
