This means there's another candle behind the one that lit. The placement of candles and the angle of the picture is perfect! Suor de Sapo is right :D

Which is what happened with the second candle. But I'm not too certain about the mirror. I don't really where if fits in with the photo.

The mirror's not a mirror, it's just like a frame. They position the two candles on the opposite sides, and they light both of them, but extinguish one of them. It’s so easy!

Consider the angle of the mirror. The reflection of the lit candle should be on the right side of the picture.
