It depends upon the image. perhaps you could post a link to your image.

see -edge http://www.imagemagick.org/script/comma ... s.php#edge and http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/convolve/#edgedet

convert image -edge 1 result

Alternately, you would need to mask the image and get the edges of the mask. see http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/masking/
