Sorry guys, another relatively trivial question.

On one of my checks to see if fermentation had properly started earlier today, I noticed that where my FV sits (which I purposely position out of the sunlight), I noticed that the sun comes through the window and reflects off of a mirror and directly onto the FV. As the sun was going down, I guess it wouldn't have been for long.
My question is, does indirect sunlight affect the beer? I'm mainly concerned about the batch I just bottled as this was exposed the whole time without me realising. I've since covered the existing one with a bin bag, I assume this is sufficient.
