Thanks so much You have an amazing gallery, I especially like your portraits of black animals. They can be so tricky to get right, but they really stand out.

oh they are! but having a black rabbit myself, it gives me lots of time to get it right though it really remains hard...
thanks a lot for the compliment

You're welcome! I've had to practise heaps too with my bitch Sooty [link]
Although she isn't black if I photograph her in the wrong light her face is a black blob with no eyes.

Your rabbit looks super on the white background. Another thing I am experimenting is a black animal with a black background. Unfortunately I'm not too clever at lighting so its taking a while to get it right. It can look incredible!! The animal is brought out from the background by the shine of its fur. Too cool

haha yeah her face is really dark (and she's really pretty as well!)
oh man! I want to make pic with a black background too! I'm planning on trying to make my own little studio (meaning a big carton box and some black fabric) and try it on my rabbit
though a black animal with a white background is easiest, cos then the light is mostly right

I have a cool book about pet photography that gave me the idea! I did whole bunch of photos of a litter of puppies with a black background and that was very cool.. Though much easier since the pups were red and white. I've been meaning to edit them to upload to DA but it just keeps getting put off as too much work .

Your photos really make me want a rabbit!

oh that sounds great! what's that book? I never came across a pet photography book and it sound nice.
rabbits are so much fun! they're so cute to watch... only it's pretty difficult to get a decent pic of them, since they never sit still and you can't teach them anything (exept dinertime )
and please upload those puppypics! I'm curious

I've uploaded the pic of my puppies with the black background [link] Its been through photoshop to make the background truely black, I couldn't get the backdrop far enough behind for it to photograph that dark.

The book is called "Professional techniques for pet and animal photography". It has some great ideas in it. A lot of it is for studio photography which I'm not quite ready for but I'll get there.

I won't be uploading the puppy pics any time soon. They look rubbishy straight off the camera. The plan was that with the black background I could easily cut and paste them into different groupings. I just haven't had the time yet. Maybe I'll mess around with it this afternoon, just for you

Is it possible to clicker train a bunny? I've heard you can also house-train them???

haha yeah I think you can... I've tried anyway, but failed miserably! I have no experience with clickertraining and rabbits only work for you if they see their own advantage, meaning there has to be food involved. And you can also house-train them, but my rabbits just never learn (I guess they're or to stupid or they just like to annoy me )

hmm I'll see if I can get that book, sounds really great. thanks for the tip! I'll take a look at your puppy pic right now
