    Black or White?

    I have always shot on white melamine, but recently shot some on black, and was wondering what YOU personally liked to see....black or white backdrop.

    Black




    White

    For these particular pictures, I don't think it's a fair comparison since the white is perfect, clean white, whereas I can see the fibers on the black cloth ...

    So basically, I like the white better, but I'd also like to see some shots on black melamine or plastic or some other non-textured surface.

    Pretty pretty snake, though!

    I had thought of that, especially being so close up, the fibers may take away from the subject.

    I may have to hunt down a piece of black melamine.

    I was guessing that but he is so extreme I thought he might have something else going on too. I really love how yellow he is. My pin is reduced like that too, but more toward brown overall.

    I usually like white a lot better. It's cleaner and it's usually a better background to show off colors.

    I think it depends on the snake.The more contrast the better. Ex;Shoot a lucy on black or 8-ball on white. I think it makes a hell of a diffrence
