Best Answer

White light is made up of all the colours of the rainbow. When light hits an object, some colours (wavelengths) are absorbed, and some reflected. The colour you see is a combination of all the reflected colours.

Why doesn't a colored opaque object reflect a one color image?

Because most of them aren't shiny. Those that are do sort of reflect a monochromatic image; look at a glass Christmas ornament sometime.
