I notice you've got some "background" spheres there that are nearly
white. I used a picture pigment and a mask pigment and only sampled
where the mask said that the red channel was 1 in value - I forgot one
can use the grey value as well.

By the way, nice compression in the code.

Yeah, I could clean up those nearly white pixels by just editing the source
image, but I was too lazy :)

Thanks, it's become a habit since entering the short-code contest.

Neato. Not always easy to get a good result with glass tho'.

You can have a lot of fun with variations on this idea:
