        I have started doing that as well. But I post such pictures on my Instagram rather than blog unless it relates to some topic I’m writing here. 🙂

  3. Very nice photo essay, Cornelia.

  4. Oooh! Cornelia lately Brooms have been very very popular these days in India as it has been a cleaning issue of the country. I do not know when they shall understand that the country shall be clean unless the mind is, wherein the Broom is not required. 😃
    Brooms have been the livelihood of many in India. Your one of the images shows so many varieties of them.
    Thanks
    Shiva

    • Thank you Shiva, for your thoughts about such an essential, simple and thousands of years old tool to clean up. Indeed as you can see I’ve seen so many brooms in India, like everywhere. I like the texture of brooms. Totally agree with you, that the mind has to be cleaned first.
