Can you find the... um...er... I forgot how many! But there are some differences in the reflected (right-side) picture, that's for sure.

Who's the FGITW now?

    $\begingroup$ Since the image is a perfect mirror, one can flip it in image editing software and calculate the differences. To make this more difficult, you could apply a slight distortion filter to the image :) $\endgroup$ Commented Apr 3, 2018 at 3:06

    $\begingroup$ @R.M Certainly! But would that be faster? The last one got 4 answers in the span of 20 seconds, or so it was said. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ Yes, of course. I found all the differences using photoshop in less than a minute, which is something I wouldn't be able to do manually. I didn't post because I thought that's cheating. $\endgroup$ Commented Apr 3, 2018 at 3:23
  • $\begingroup$ As with the first puzzle, please add the source/reference for the image to the question. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ ☑ for you, but no secret imaginary bonus points as you did not properly identify the "thing" on the sheep's hat. (Don't be discouraged, no one else seemed to recognize it either.) $\endgroup$

Adding to puzzledPig's answer..

The signature on the bottom left/right was not flipped.
The eyes on the crest/shield/whatever it is hanging on the table is slightly different
The sheep's glasses' lenses are not flipped

I'll start with a few:

The sheep's hat has a symbol on the right, but not the left.
The rocking horse in the top row of the window (left-hand side of the right image) is reflected wrong.
The house in the top row of the window (right-hand side of the right image) has a chimney in the right image, but not the left.

Also:

There is one fewer can (?) on the table on the right-hand side.
