That's a cool looking bike! Great idea. I like the little pieces of you and the camera in each mirror.

The camera is very dark and little to have the title of subject in this picture.

Whatever is in the lower left corner is distracting. Otherwise, creative and good setup.

This almost works for me the background in the reflection and the street could be much better. The same shot in the park would have worked better.

I love the idea, but personally I'd like this to be cropped off the top quite a bit. The three mirrors are cool, but they lose impact because of the rest of the space.
