Masaki Ueda is a designer and photographer from Osaka, Japan. In these photos from Heaven 2014, Ueda shows broken toys left at a park playground in Osaka. A small plastic horse, a clock, small cars and trucks, and a wide variety of tricycles, scooters, and other rideable vehicles are pictured. The harsh lighting and washed-out colors emphasize the feeling of abandoned, sun-faded, toys.
