A door-to-door bicycling brush, broom, and mop salesman parked on a busy street in Bangkok.

Yet another one of my personal Moby Dicks that I finally managed to capture on camera. I generally see this elusive door-to-door broom salesman when I'm without my photographing machina but today I was finally in luck. It's an odd trade, to say the least, but if you've seen the traditional style of brooms and brushes used in Bangkok - the kind that lose its bristles quite easily - you'll know brush turnover is high enough to make this job a financially sustainable one.
