The Black Dog
This is for 1/8/08 POTD see below for 1/7/08 POTD. :)
This is one, of my two, geriatric dogs, Chloe is an 11 1/2 year old black lab. We also call her Her Highness ,Her Highness Chloesita Queen Fat@ss, Fatty, or Sita(seeta) ummmm yeah she is a little overweight(see fat roll on her HEAD) but we tell her she is just fluffy.
She hates the camera or more precisely me behind the camera, I think the fact she can't see my face freaks her out, so she avoids eye contact at all costs. LOL
Taking a good picture of this dog is darn near impossible for me, she is so black that you lose all her expression in the images. I had to do quite a bit of PPing to get the detail back and to get rid of all the noise due to her super shiny coat.

She is beautiful! Black animals are SO hard to photograph, but you did it so nicely!
That is a great photo and I can't believe that she is afraid of the camera...mine just runs so fast that I can not catch her.
