Though I would think the photo was taken by someone else, why go through the mirror thing or Photoshop?

I suppose there would be ways to accomplish the photo with smoke and (multiple) mirrors, but assuming a BBC photographer's budget and what appears to be a straight-on shot into a mirror made with the camera's on-camera flash, I think it's safe to assume it was altered with software. You can see the flare from the flash at the top of the frame and, as someone else pointed out, the orange glow of the sensor. Also, unless expensive, perfectly flat mirrors were used, the image would degrade with each successively added mirror.

Camera pointed into two mirrors held at right angles to each other, like a V? I can't quite picture whether or not that would reverse the writing. Also, why assume that there was only one camera?
