One thing you can do is reverse the shot in photoshop and the photo in a mirror aspect is not so noticeable because the words are no longer backwards.Very cool shot. I tend to hate most mirror shot with the camera in the frame, but this works nicely because the mirror isn't visible as a mirror(if that makes any sense)
Also it looks like the lense is your second eye, marking you as a photographer. (Also it's kind of reminiscent of cybernetic eyes

I like this shot - cool!
To my eye it looks like some parts on the face (forehead, bridge of nose) are a bit overexposed. Aside from that - very nice!

This is the stronger photo for me now that the face brightness has been toned down. Nice sharp eye!

the former , and I find using the manual focus makes portraits a lot easier, auto focus has a tendency to focus on the eye lashes or on the nose too much."prof" as in Professor or as in Professional?thanks for the comment. I think it took 20 shots before I accually got the focus right. focusing with a DSLR is a whole lot harder than a point and shoot. Unless its just my camera.
