A cache light helps object that are round look more round, but I think I overdid it, and the ellipse isn't correctly placed. How's about this for a revision?

OK but in MHO it was fine before just in the wrong place. Shouldn't it be over the highlight at the top left and over the stripes as well? As it is now the highlight appears to be behind he stripes. Anyhow I am not crazy about the "catch light" idea, a reflected light along the bottom would be preferable.
Here is an example in black and white to give you an idea what I mean. It's no where close to your fine work but it's just here to give sort of an idea of the point I am trying to make.
