Okay... my workflow:

I decided to make it look like the street was flooded and there were alligators wading around in the swampy water. So, I used a layer mask on the water picture to fit it into the street, often using a large fuzzy brush to fade it in. Then I put the alligator in and played with the levels and hue/sat a bit to try to make it match the rest of the picture. Finally, I hit some of the alligator-water seam line by adding some "splashes" (white fuzzy brush at low opacity + white spatter brush).
