Hey Scott, nice to meet you. Really good to put a somewhat clear face to name. I've posted a SP once before, I think a few years ago. I might create a new one in this new theme for the heck of it.
This was for an assignment called "Picture yourself" a couple years ago on a motorcycle forum I moderate. I was playing with some CD's and noticed how reflective they were then I saw the hole and IIRC held it up to the window to look through it. The reflective side was facing me so I saw myself and the blue sky in the center and the wheels started to turn. It's actually a reversed image to get Nikon to read properly too.
I must admit, I too enjoy seeing other dgrinners mugs. Makes this whole internet thing a tad bit more personal.

You've only shown glimpses of your mug over a few shots so I look forward to meeting you as well! (and I'm sure it will be as creative as ever...)
Like your take here! I was wondering about how you were using your left hand in the reflection (not noticing that the "Nikon" was not reversed). And it is brilliant how you spaced the center of the disc with your lens!

If you are really going to try a take like the other two "self-portrait, not street"- you really should be kissing your reflection
Very cool--nice to put a face to the name. I love that big pop of blue.
