It was totally by chance. There were several factors that are used in the so-called low key photography gathered that day. I used these elements without knowing it.

Daisy developed a sudden head tilt, one of her eyes started to bulge, and she started to rapidly lose motor control and orientation. She did not respond to treatment for an inner ear infection, so the likely culprit was a tumor.

So, rest in peace, little ones.
