Why can you see your shadows in a muddy pond or in a clear puddle but nor in a deep clear pond?

A shadow is the region of darkness were the light is blocked. Your shadow is the difference between say the sunlight that bounces from a sidewalk to your eye and the dark area where your body blocked the sunlight. When you see your shadow in a muddy pond, you actually see the light that reflects off of the mud particles suspended in the water. When you see your shadow in a clear pond, you see the light reflected off of the bottom of a shallow pond through the clear water. In a deep pond the light does not penetrate all the way to the bottom (therefore no reflection) or does not penetrate in sufficient quantities for your eyes to perceive the reflection.
