Weeds in the Grass by Leanne Lindsay
I was exploring the unique Boothtown Aqueduct in Sydney’s west with my grandchildren when this beautiful flower caught my eye. The sunlight hit it perfectly, and I just had to capture it! I wasn’t sure if it was a weed or a flower and to be honest, it didn’t really matter. It was pretty and unusual. I later found out that it is purple-top vervain, Brazilian vervain, or common verbena flowers. These flowers are native to South America, so grow quite well in Australia, and are known for their vibrant colors that attract butterflies and bees.

Born in Adelaide in 1962, Leanne Lindsay’s family moved to Sydney when she was 12 years old. She was gifted her first camera for her 21st birthday but a break-in saw her precious camera stolen just 3 years later. It was only in her late 50s she was able to afford to replace it and now in her 60s she has discovered a passion that was sadly lost many years ago. She now photographs families and newborns but enjoys architectural photography and landscapes in particular.
