Last weekend was prom. After prom, my friends and I rented a suite at Embassy Suites for the afterparty. In the picture we took outside of the hotel, you can see a bright spot of light on the "M" in Embassy Suites. This is light reflecting off of the metallic surface. The metal had a reflective coating that caused it to reflect light by acting like a mirror. When the light from the camera, the lights, and surrounding car headlights struck that "M," it hit the surface at an angle of incidence. It then reflects to your eyes at an angle of reflection, which is always equal to the angle of incidence.
