GAD, who is the owner of this board, is a great photographer. Below is a link to a blog he wrote on how to photograph a black dog. Kind of long but very informative.
Thanks Jeannie I just typed for twenty minutes and hit the wrong key & poof. Don't you hate it when that happens but it was a good thing because by the time I got back you had GAD's link posted so I don't have to do it again.
