How can I get good photos of my black dog?

[TummyButtonFluff]

Seriously, she just looks like a blob - can't see enough detail in face and eyes etc. Can anyone help? This should probably be in a photography section, but wondered if anyone had found a solution in terms of finding a good backdrop?

You need to be outside! The secret to good photography is good light. I have some lovely photos of my black working cocker taken in Richmond Park.

Same problem with my black cats :). Flash indoors!

I always thought you needed a really bright day outside until I read this and now have some lovely black dog pics :)

I have lovely photos of my mainly black dog ,good lighting is the answer.
