gfa5775 has just told it's real and now I believe him,
but I still don't understand the reflection... the only explanation I can find is a double reflection: one from the outside (nearer convex curvature) and the other from the internal (farther/concave) curvature.
Very interesting indeed, and a great image in anyway!
