 I'm sure I'll get ripped for not meeting the challenge since the subject (the camera) is not in focus.

I like it... :-)

Did not vote on these, but really like this one when reviewing them. I think the point of the photo is to show it was in a mirror and had you flipped it you would have ruined it.

Brilliant shot into a mirror...the words on the camera are inverted. Sort of reminds me of when I would get back prints from the store and the negatives were procssed backwards.

Flipping the image might have worked better, to remove mirror effect.

I would have reversed the image so it wasn't obvious is was taken in a mirror.

I like this best of the "mirror" shots in this challenge. Maybe even an image flip would be interesting--Nikon would be un-reversed, and the "looking in a mirror" aspect would vanish.

Good job with the self portrait, wonder if you preferred the mirror image look to the image horizontzally flipped?

If you flipped this horizontally, it wouldn't be so obviously a mirror shot.

The backwards writing is a bit distracting. A flip in PS would do the trick. Great photo otherwise. One of my favorites for this challenge.
