Back ground for Balls

I want to get some updated pics of my balls and I'm wondering what the best back ground colour would be?
Thanks,
Trevor

It really depends on the lighting and the effects you are trying to achieve. I like to use natural back grounds for all my animals. look in my Gallery at some of my BP shots and see if you like and of my backgrounds they are easy to duplicate.

When I photograph Eight I have tried LOTS of different backgrounds! So far when it comes to unnatural backgrounds dark blue seems to be the best one. Examples!:

The blue

Hot Pink:

I have tried lots of different ones. Natural too. But solid colors seem to work best. I still gotta work on lighting.

Thanks Lisa. The blue looks very good, and so does Eight! Looks a lot like my smallest female Togo.
Brian, keep pushing pal, keep pushing!

if you use a solid background the snake will stand out better and your eye wont stray
