That's not what is happening. And my question had nothing to do with cameras at this point. I asked one question and that was: In the mirror image is it being teleported, or is it at the water instantly. Answer yes or no. I gave you a hint...
A mirror image is a reflected duplication of an object that appears identical but reversed.

Your link was to a photography contest that were pictures taken by a camera, but it doesn't matter because if a person were there they would see what the camera took a picture of the light being reflected off of the scene both to the eye and off the water and then to the eye, the combination creates the double but opposite image. In this case upside down. You should also note that part of the reflected image is distorted because the water is not perfectly smooth.
Now answer my question about the star.
And what happens to the light reflected from an object when the object no longer exists, is it replaced by new light from the sun?
