Please, please tell me there is a magic photography tool for shooting black dogs in water. I either get this:
Water is ok, but dog seems really dark...and this is a better shot...most times I can hardly see his eyes...
Or this:
Dog looks great, but water is totally blown out...
or, if he is really close, and making lots of shadows in the water, it sometimes comes out fair, like this:
These were all shot on a Nikon D90 with an f2.8 70-200mm lens. It was either overcast, or overcast with a slight sunbreak. Same thing happens on sunny days, tho. :tongue:
I would think that this is all that is possible, but I have seen much better shots of black dogs in water...
I would greatly appreciate any thoughts anyone may have on this subject.
