Cane Toad Picture in HDR with Textures

Nov 20, 2010 | Animals & Wildlife, Photo Art & Montage

I found this dried-up cane toad while walking my dog around the neighborhood. I didn’t have my camera so I took the little guy home with me to photograph it. I only snapped a few shots to see how I could process him. This is would be my first attempt at post processing my dried-up little friend. I’m going to try another shot at it later, but with a solid white or black background. I feel the background now is a bit distracting, even though it matches the over-all look.
