Smurf on Stantaway Hill

Lying, mislaid or rejected, by the track across Stantaway Hill, this smurf symbolises so much: the transience of taste, the carelessness of litterers, the tragedy of loss, the appallingness of toy design, the fact that this is a route followed by school children ... Notice how its arms are held wide apart in an expression of plea, begging to be picked up. I left it there, callous photographer that I am.
