While this is a funny idea and well executed I have a minor nitpick because anything viewed through a glass sphere will be mirrored completely - while a glass bubble depending on the thickness of the glass "wall" will distort the image laterally correct:

Yeah, i look at it as more surreal effect rather than great reproduction but your point is perfectly valid
