Hi,
I am trying to take photo of a black object, say a black cotton jacket, under studio floodlights (w/ umbrella) and put the photo on the web. I am disappointed with how the photo came out. The details (pocket lining, zipper) are too hard too see on the screen, unless I really blow the photo up. If I try to brighten the photo using Photoshop, I lose the richness (blackness) in the color, and the object turns brownish. What can I do to improve the photo? I have tried underexposing it a couple notches, but it hasn't helped much.
Thank you,
Min
