Greek photographer and designer Alexis Efstafopoulos (@alef79) started capturing discarded toys after a plastic horse was once in the frame: “What I liked most about this photo was the shapes: the horse, the sidewalk lines, the fence… In the following days I saw the toys on the streets again and again. Obviously they were always on the streets of Athens, but I just didn't notice them."
