I spotted the shiff and his colony of geeft hosses :D

But seriously, it's interesting.

Is the mountains really that big? And is Table Mountain really that small and skew?
 
Look at Robbin Island, move about an inch left (middle of that bay area), then go straight up. It's right where the high mountains start.
 
I reckon those elevations have been skewed a little bit. but its an awesome pic.
