Favourite Photo Friday: Princess Darcy

Okay, so it’s Favourite Photo Friday on, erm, Monday, but go with it…

This photo is of Darcy, and was one of the first of her we managed to get that actually resembled her. Due to the adorable black smudge on her nose, she tends to look rather ugly in photos, which is a shame because she’s such a beauty in life. I captured this when she was stalking a fly, and I love it for two reasons. First, you can see how beautiful she actually is, and secondly, you can see how small she is. People don’t tend to believe me when I say how tiny she is, but with this, you can compare her to the DVDs behind her, which are only a bit smaller than her full length.  She’s a gorgeous, tiny wee Princess and we absolutely adore her.

Favourite Photo Friday: The Iconic Donncha Picture

I’ve shamelessly stolen the idea for this feature from both Amber and Keris, both of whom I’m very thankful to for introducing me to the idea, and beings as we have so many photos of the cats, it seemed like a good feature to start.

First up is this photo of Donncha. Paul and I call it the “iconic” Donncha photo, because it’s just so beautiful. And the real brilliance is that it was a complete accident; he was sniffing around the camera (as Donncha loves the “light box”) and I accidentally hit the capture button and this is the result. Donncha is incredibly photogenic (and such a poser) and this is our favourite photo of him, taken when he was about a year old.
