Reflection - Definitions

Definition:



the throwing back by a body or surface of light, heat, or sound without absorbing it

Describing Reflection:

blurred, strong, weak, fuzzy, mirrored, exact, replica

Variety of Reflection:

This is a striking distorted image in many ways as reflection is used and exhibited in two ways. The first distorted reflection is the use of the glass in which the woman's face is distorted. This comes across in a weird way, as her face is split in half. Also, the second reflection is on the bottom of the marble. 

This image is great as the man in the image is portrayed as having meaning with the use of the older man. The man looking into the mirror has a different reflection when coming out of a younger man. This gives the image an interesting feel as it makes the viewer question why. The use of lighting also highlights this. 

This picture is different to the others I have researched as they do not feature a reflection of the main person we see. Instead we see the reflection on the other side of the window. I think this is great as it is different to what photography reflection we are used too and also black and white isn't used. 

The reflection in this one is unique to me as you cannot see where the line of reflection is or what they're reflecting off of. This is because the only thing obvious in this image is the woman and her reflection contrasts to the black background. 
Personal Definition:
an identical mirrored image shown through light hitting an object.
