Louella Lester – Seeing and learning while holding camera and pen between me and the world.

Recycling is good for the Earth, but it’s not always pretty or even interesting to look at beside buildings or down back lanes. I decided to play around with it. 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 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 …

I’ve been taking photos from my balcony for years, many of them include the house and trees across the river. One day, in early April this year, I noticed they were cutting down a tree near the house. Maybe it was damaged or diseased, I don’t know. Anyway, I decided to take some photos as …
It isn’t always pretty in the early spring in Winnipeg— all those dead leaves and plants leftover from fall. The gravel and mud left after the snow melts.
