Mike, it is a very nicely done, even I wonder is it a stitched image? the mirror part looks sharp and the right side blured. Really what is called " "deception of the eye"...

 

Some explanation? Thanks Pnina

This was taken without flash, so I'm sure I was using a pretty large opening. That's one reason for the blurry foreground, but I've always had a problem when photographing mirrors or any other reflective surface, even a smooth lake surface. Usually what I thought would come out sharp will be blurry. But this is not stitched, just an accident. & thanks very much for the look.

Well, sometimes, like here, accident, can make a great shot. Problem with mirror, is that you always need to remember that for the focus, the distance from your camera to the subject is actually doubled and it's always tricky to get it right. But here, I think that the woman who has her hair done is telling a more intense story than the stylist, and the shot is a clever one.
