Reflection?
When there is an object that has light shined upon it, and there is a resulting shadow on the wall in front of said object (shadow puppets), is that a reflection? refraction? simply a shadow? (There is a light eminating from a room, with object being 7 ft away from the doorway of the room and being few feet away from the wall). Room(light) ------ object ----wall (shadow). hopefully i explained this well enough. I recall saying how nice the projection was and my friend said "the reflection?" and i said "the shadow". he insisted "you mean, the reflection". i didnt want to argue...
