Ok, there's a catch: an image can be seen as a stream of bytes, and under this definition you can argue that an image is different every time you open it in your computer (this will be true almost every time this binary stream is loaded into memory.) Also, if you change the file format (from JPG to PNG, for example) this binary stream will be entirely different, and most likely of a different size.
But you can't say an image is different just because of different meaning of storing/reading/showing it. An image is a representation, much like the letters you are reading right now are just a convention to represent ideas and concepts.
To resume the obvious, arz can safely claim that the copyright of this image belongs to him (her?.), but obviosly, that parody exception thing also apply.
