A very interesting image. I am fascinated by minimalism and I find it very 
difficult to obtain. You succeded very well so far. I believe you ended up 
with more  :-)
It may ruin the image, but a few caustics may (just may) improve it 
overall...

No more then a minute or two; Disney wasn't really part of my childhood.
Google isn't turning up anything obvious, could you let me in on the joke?

The three spheres form the outline of Disney's Mouse  :-)

1.  Despite having carefully cultivated a "wholesome family" image, Walt
Disney and his corporation were/are actually (IMHO he added so as not to be
sued) quite a nasty bunch of folks, notorious for, among other things, suing
the pants off of people for using anything that remotely resembles their
copyrighted material.

2. In recent times, a simplified geometric version of the Mickey Mouse
character has been widely used as a company logo, especially for
television.

Example:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disney_Channel_graphics

I pretty sure you already know this, but just in case...  Folks were making
fun of Disney's litigious tendencies, not your work.

Regards,
Mike C.
