Definition Post - Reflection

Definition of "Reflection" - an image seen in a mirror or shiny surface.

Adjectives to describe and/ore relate to the word "Reflection" - Surface, Opposite, Replicate, Copy, Mirror, Window, Light, Colour, Shine, Clear, Metal, Object, Likeness, Echo, Distorted, Inverted, Blurred.

I found the next four images on the internet to represent the idea of reflection. In the first image we can see the photographer in the reflection of the glasses, as well as everything else that is reflected. This image is in black and white. The next photo I selected is a bit more unusual because it is of the back of a car, but we are able to see a distorted reflection of the buildings behind it. This photo is in colour so we are able to define each aspect of the image more clearly. The third photograph is more of a 'typical' reflection as it shows a girl leaning her head against a window, so we are able to see the reflection of her face in the window. All her features are inverted because the window reflects a mirrored image. The last photo shows us a reflection of a car side-view mirror. We are able to see the side of the car as well as everything behind it. All these images represent the same thing, reflection.





My own definition of Reflection - the inverted or replicated image of an object, person or place displayed on either a shiny surface or mirror.
