Can a mirror reflect or cast a shadow?
)
March 7th, 2009
Imagine a dot on a mirror. If you pointed a light at it form an angle, the light would bounce off and the dot on the mirror would appear as a black spot in the reflected light.
Now stand at an angle in front of the mirror and shine a light directly from behind you.
Technically, shouldn’t the mirror cast your shadow like it casts the dots – because your dark image (in comparison to the light) is on the mirror?
