Did you take into account the laws of reflection? Entry-angle equals exit-angle, or so? Maybe there is a reflection but you cannot see it from the point of view of your camera? The white reflection might be just your background-color. Just move the camera around a little.

Here is how a basic mirroring is achieved.

Maybe if you could post a small example of your pics, I could see, why there isn't a correct reflection? Willy
