This is a very interesting shot, but the only actual reflection is very small (in the wedding ring) and nearly impossible to see. If I am missing something and there is another reflection here, please set me straight ~ Myqyl ~
After a third (or forth) look, I'm beginning to think you are trying for a personal reflection (ie. thought, contempation). And while that's not obvious (at least to me) I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.

Very cool indeed! I think that a landscape format would have been even more striking IMHO.

Comment by Kavey:
Lovely! Nice shapes, would have been a great neg space entry too! LOL. Like the highlights on the wedding ring. Without the ring it wouldn't be half as good, so I see the wedding ring as a real focal point. I find it a fraction too dark overall in the skin tones for my tastes, but that's just my preferences.
9, Kavey

This is a great shot. So close to a perfect "reflection," but not quite perfect... what were you trying to imply with that? :) - 9 - JB

UPDATE:
This definitely made it to a 9 for me. Great work. 9.

ORIGINAL COMMENT:
Recently married then? Congrats! I like this image. The B/W decision is a good one. I like the use of negative space and the way the darkness kind of hugs your hands. Okay, it's not an exact reflection in the sense of creating a replica in a reflective surface, but it meets the challenge in two ways for me: 1) reflection in the sense of thought given to a topic -- this image shows reflection on the changes marriage brings to a life. 2) It mimics mirror reflection as defined above, which I think is a creative interpretation of the challenge. Well done. 8-9, just-married (That means I'll be tweaking this score one way or the other later.)
