I was wondering if refractions count as reflections.

I think for the purpose of this contest it should be.

But you need to see the object and the reflection.

You can actually see the back of the car and part of the building being reflected/refracted. It's just out of focus, but it's there.

Oh I don't question this being off theme because I can see the surroundings that are in the globe. It's unique entry! GL!

Great image anyhow!

very original

great

I like that you've told a story as opposed to taking the usual product shot. Well done on that! Choice of mug is also great LOL. I only wish the subject was sharper and photo was less grainy. Also, the roundish thing in the foreground is distracting. I think the horizon line should not have been tilted, unless it was more so, so that it seemed deliberate rather than a mistake.

Coffee helps only if you drink it first
