A Japanese artist has a clever use for straw left over after rice harvests -- dinosaur sculptures.

Amy Goda is reportedly the artist behind the sculptures, crafting them out of wooden frames and rice straw for the Wara Art Festival.

The massive creations are impressively detailed and great for photo ops.

Take a look at Goda's sculptures below.
