I dont know Mike, their transparency seems a little off (right side of fish bowl)
The sea doesn't line up too well.Unless that's the mountain.But then it's too dark. =)

Maybe they are trying to make it look like magnification?
Dunno.

Mine has the hamsters ear sticking out of the hat, i like that better.

Also i couldn't use their sky image stock because it no longer exists.
And theirs has jets in the bg and i also thought that didn't quite fit into an animal scene.

I do believe according to the position of the sun in mine, i have the shadows going the wrong direction though. =P
