Reflection of Hanukkah Candles

Question

I noticed that there is a reflection of the Hanukkah candles in the glass of the menorah, and it seems that I lit more candles. Is this a problem?

Answer

Shalom and Happy Hanukkah

There is no problem with this; anyone who looks will see the number of candles.
