Reflection of light The bouncing of light off of a surface

Uneven reflection A notebook paper is not smooth so it gives you an uneven reflection. Light does not bounce in the same direction This is why you can see the notebook paper but you can not see your reflection in the paper.

Even reflection A mirror gives you an even reflection because the light bounces off of the mirror at the same angle. A mirror is good for even reflections because it is smooth. That is why you see yourself mirror
