  • You can see your reflection in any shiny surface, from a metal spoon to a puddle of water. Sometimes

  • the reflection is sharp and clear, like the reflection from a mirror. This is called regular

  • reflection. At other times the image is fuzzy, like the reflection in moving water. This

  • is called diffuse reflection. In a regular reflection, parallel light rays hit a smooth

  • surface and are all reflected at the same angle. While in a diffuse reflection the light

  • rays are reflected in different angles.
