Looking at the source code for the webpage, the background colour
specified in the <body> tag  is RGB 235, 217, 205.  In Photoshop, the
background colour for the image reads as RGB 245, 232, 224.

If you edit the <body> tag to read 245, 232, 224, the image will blend
into the page.

And it looks good....



Cheers

Brian
