Light reflection and the Observer

By Peter D. Geldart

Imagine standing on the shore of a large lake looking to a clear horizon. The Moon is moderately high and casts a sparkling line on the water that is distinctly centred on you.
The author considers such common situations as moonlight on water and sunlight on snow to show that our position is crucial: when we move bright specular reflections follow us on top of a diffuse background.
