Thank you Sally; I did think it was rather like a fireworks display rocket finale, but in wood. But couldn’t find a good enough title to convey that idea 🙂
Thank you for that very illuminating comment. I had simply not thought of it in that way, but now you say that I can see it too.
It is strange though, isn’t it, because the picture, (unlike many of yours) does not bring out the strong underlying shape of the object, which is how I would usually try to get to the underlying function or structure. Instead it is all detail- yet that does somehow give some impression of the essence of it.
Strange that it looks ‘grassy’-though it does. It is actually made of very sturdy straight twigs of some sort. Incidentally if you look very closely you can see the uneven wear on the ends made by holding the broom at an angle as you sweep.

Like the abstract and mysterious quality of the image.

The essence of broom.

Great shot of an everyday object!
Thank you 🙂
Beautiful textures, I thought it was grass!
It does look a bit like that, now you mention it 🙂
I thought it was grass too – what fun shot – 🙂

Super abstract! Reminds me a little of one of those fibre optic lamps seen in trendy homes in the ’70s 🙂
Now you mention it- yes 🙂
