How does regular reflection differ from diffuse reflection?
If the reflecting surface is very smooth, the reflection of light that occurs is called specular or regular reflection. When light strikes the surface of a (non-metallic) material it bounces off in all directions. Thus, an 'image' is not formed. This is called diffuse reflection.
