Black on the bottom of photos (flash related)

Do you have a long lens on? Generally, it's happened to me that I was close to the subject and the lens shadows the scene when the flash goes off because it's on top of the camera. Pull the camera back, get the flash off the camera, or turn the flash off altogether.

It might be something else but that's the only thing I've run into so far.

K..that is what I thought as well. But I wasn't too sure if it was something else with that as well.

Thanks!
