Cat Show Selfie… With a Dress

February 26, 2017 By: Summer Samba42 Comments

Here I am at the cat show in Glendale, CA. It was a long day, and I got benched near the entrance so I had tons of visitors! I’ll tell you all about it tomorrow. But towards the end of the day, I realized I hadn’t done this week’s selfies, so I got right to it. I decided I wanted to wear my dress with the skulls and pink tulle for them.

I could tell right away that I needed to adjust the exposure. There’s a trick to it on the iPhone, so I was able to make the rest of the photos darker.

The lighting is better, but I think I need to fix the angle a little bit.

I like that a lot better!

That was enough! I was really tired by the time the show was over. It was just Sizzle competing today — Vana was at a different show. I can’t wait to tell you how they both did!

    Job well done, Summer. You always look lovely no matter what you wear. We especially like the next to last photo. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Angel Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth, Calista Jo and Cooper Murphy.

    You almost look like a hell angel (if there were not your cute face) I know that skulls are very fashionable, but I am scared …. lol !

    I wish that I could have been that to pet you! How can any cat lover not want to pet your soft warm fur?

    I can’t wait to see Vana’s show pictures! She must be quickly growing into a very pretty cat!

    Peep has got a new IPhone 5 to try, but I doubt will be any better at that than the last one! However you are a consummate professional and the selfie is a delight in that lovely gown.
