Yes.
Everything you see is the light reflecting off of the object you see.
So when you see yourself in water that the light bouncing off your face onto the water and back to your eyes.

What happens when a ray of light strikes a flat water surface?
Whenever light hits a water surface, some of the light is reflected off, and some of it is refracted, or "bent", deeper into the water. The proportion that is reflected and refracted depends on the wavelength of the light and the angle of incidence. When light goes straight down into the water, most of it penetrates the surface and goes into the water. When the light impacts at an angle, more of the light is reflected away.
Where is light absorbed or reflected?
Water.
Why is light internally reflected in a raindrop?
light after incident on molecules of water (rain drop) it scatters or reflected.
What colors are reflected from black?
no color can be reflected from black because it absorbs all the light!!! but anything can be reflected off of white and all those light colors...
How is a reflection of light off a white wall similar to the reflection of light off a mirror?
when light hits an object some light is absorbed and some is reflected. when it hits a mirror, almost all of that light is reflected. when it hits a white wall a lot of the light is reflected but not enough to form an image our i can detect. a wall is also not smooth so the light is reflected at billions of different angles
What is reflected light from the water or light?
Water is a completely smooth surface and light is reflected from the sun.

How does light reflected?
Light can be reflected because it bounces off a surface at an angle.
Can you see through muddy water?
yes
What are property that affects how much light will be reflected off it?
The extent of smoothness tells us that how much light will be reflected off any substance.If the surface is frictionless the light reflected will be cent percent.
When light is reflected from a rough surface the reflected light does what while producing no image?
Bounces off
What is the percentage of light reflected by a planet?
Albedo is the measurement of how strongly light is reflected off an object.
Where is light absorbed or reflected?
Water.
How is light reflected off an object?
by a mirror

Why does a red fish look black in the ocean greater than water depth of 10 meters?
Has to do with reflected light, its wavelength, and how water effects it. Red light cannot travel as deep in water as green or blue. Therefor, when a red fish goes deeper the needed RED LIGHT cannot reach it and will not be reflected off the fish. SO! It looks black because it is REFLECTING no color. Thats what color is... reflected light.
Is the moon light reflected off of earth?
no the light on the moon is from the sun
