Hello and welcome to The Sunday Selfies!
We are joining The Kitties Blue, from The Cat on My Head blog, for the weekly celebration of blogs and bloggers from across the world and across the species.

Judging by last weeks photographs—which were very well received here and on Facebook—Mrs H and I thought we would do a series of portraits of yours truly, contemplating life, the weather and why the gamekeeper has so many mismatched sofa cushions? OK so I wasn't actually considering the latter, but I think some more redecorating will be needed, MOL
So without further ado, I bring you my first pose, 100% natural, nothing added or taken away. Just plain ol' me with a few stray hairs. As to what I was thinking about? Well, besides contemplating firing the new makeup artiste, the sky had brightened between rain showers and I was pondering if it was worth going out for a walk or should just stop indoors and wait for lunch.
I'm pretty sure you can all guess which I chose, right?
Anyways, even though the picture above is taken from the first—Mrs H practising her editing skills gleaned from the night school classes she's been attending—they do seem and feel a little different.
I'm not sure which of these two I prefer, the close-up or the full body shot? Mrs H says she's for the close-up; which do you prefer?
To see what our international blogging pals have been up to this week, be it wide-angle or close-up, please click the links below, and enjoy the Hop!
You look quite serious and lovely as ever!
ReplyDeleteThanks, we take all our naps seriously, MOL ;)

They are both lovely. I have to admit that I did try the hair on your leg off my screen. Old habits die hard!
ReplyDeleteI have to confess—on Mrs H's behalf—that I did check that hair too! Alas this iage does make my ear hair look white and it is more soft brown grey.

Those are both most beautiful sweet Princess!
ReplyDeleteThank you, sometimes it is so hard to choose.

Both are stunning photos Princess Erin!
ReplyDeleteThanks. Mrs H does try so hard to get them right.

I fancy both of those portraits of you, my dove. There is not a photo of you that I don't fancy. Tee hee hee. I shall smooch your pretty nose right on the screen, though I wish it could be in purrson. [Sighing] a black kitty can dream. Purr purr purr.
ReplyDeleteOooh hang on, if you are going to do screen sharing smooches I will get Mrs H to give the screen a wipe at this end as there are paw and finger prints everywhere !
DeleteOne day we will be together my sweet black floofy wooly bear and house panther.
Till then I'm sending smoochies and pawkisses to last the week. . . .

They are both beautiful, I can't choose a favorite. XO
ReplyDeleteHi, and thank you. You can have both, for sure, and whilst we like the close up more, Mrs H rather likes the the Lady of leisure wide shot, too. MOL

We like both, Erin!
ReplyDeletePurrs,

ReplyDeleteThank you. Posing is something I seem to be able to do a lot, well at least at certain tims of the day ;)

WE love both of them, Erin! Do we really have to choose a fave? :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, and no choice needed if you don't want to. So hard I find sometimes to like just one when they are so alike.
DeletePurrs
ERin
You're purrfect in both, Erin!
ReplyDeleteThanks, we tried our best, and bar some stray hairs, it did rather come out quite nicely.

We have a slight preference for the close up as we love looking at you but both are wonderful Erin. Purrs Princess
ReplyDeleteThanks, I think a lot of folk share the liking for the close-up but it is a close thing between the two.
DeletePurrs
ERin
I like the one with your whole body included, Erin! It makes your stink-eye more profound...LOL!
ReplyDeleteMOL, you noticed that then. I was a bit put out by the camera but the session was soon over and my normal lunch hour was resumed. :)

Aww..I love them both, sweet Purrincess, but I can't take my eyes of your sweet back pawsies, so I go for...both😸Pawkisses for a wonderful week ahead🐾😽💞
ReplyDeleteThem back paws do seem to be stealing the limelight, MOL. I like how my tilwas embracing them, too.
DeletePurrs
ERin
Although your gorgeous face is better in the close up, I prefer the full-body version as I find your little white footie very fetching.
ReplyDeleteYou have a gamekeeper?
Awww, thank you. It doesnt do to leave one's paws out of the credits, does it, MOL
DeletePurrs
ERin
Excellent close-ups, ERin. Our favorite is the first one!
ReplyDeleteThank you. We love tthe colour scheme/feeling this has.
DeletePurrs
ERin
The close-up is good, because your beautiful face is so gorgeous. But in the full-body shot, We get to see more of you.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm. It's hard to decide...
Thank you. It is probably too hard to decide unless one has a real love of close ups or wider shots.

Hello and nice to meet you, Erin!! I can't pick the one!! You look gorgeous in two selfies! Oh, do you think we look like twins?!? :) :)
ReplyDeletePinot xo
Hi, Pinot, and great to meet you, also. Hmmm, well I think I could get you in as an honourary Tuxedo – Canine Branch. If we haven't got one already in Upper Much-Mousing then we will have to start one, MOL
DeleteHave a wonderful Sunday Selfie week in Canada.
