#197 - Christmas Casualty

#197/365 - Every time this year old toys are replaced with new ones. This poor little guy has seen better days and I guess some little boy or girl decided it was time to let him go. More than likely it was the parents that tossed him away behind some poor unsuspecting kids eyes. Kinda reminds me of Toy Story when Buzz and Woody thought they were going to be replaced and forgotten. Makes you think that for all those happy moments on Christmas morning, someone is going to pay the price :(

Actually I thought it would make a cool picture so I grabbed one of my daughters old toys, tossed him in the trash and shot away. The people that lived there must have wondered why I was taking pictures of their trash, I'm surprised they didn't call the cops on me. Pluto was her first and favorite stuffed animal when she was little. Don't worry, I brought him home after the shoot, even though we have a room full of old stuffed animals from four kids that are all teenagers now.
