Daikichi Amano is known for his extremely risky and sensual animaltography. While he usually focuses on some sizzling squid pictures (which have previously been featured on Trend Hunter), this Amano original shows that frogs can get in on some of the action as well.
I warn you, some of these pictures are deeply disturbing, but at the same time, captivating.
Implications - More than anything you have to feel for the models in these shots. Being covered in toads and frogs is not my idea of a romantic evening, but let's hope they were paid well for their services. Needless to say, however, being in a pile of amphibians would be a hard experience to "froget." Get it?!
