4 annotated images of reflection

This image has reflection in the water of the parasols, this reflection is mirrored and very clear, you can even see the colours of the sky reflected in the water. I like this image because the water is so calm it allows the reflection to be very clear, this represents a calm holiday place for me. 

This image has unclear reflection as the children are stepping through the waters reflection, giving them a shaky reflection. The reflection is colourless however this could be because the effect is in black and white. The reflection is still clear however as iv'e already said, it is shaky. I like this image because it makes me think that the children have recently played in the water which is clear representation of childlike ways. 

In this image the reflection is colourful however unclear as the reflection is blurred through the ripples of the sea, which gives the idea that the fair is taking place on a pier. The reflection is mirrored, although I would not say it is symmetrical as you cannot see every aspect that you can see in the actual thing, it looks just like a blur of colours. I find this image okay as I can give it a clear setting however i do not like how everything is blurred in colours, I personally do not think it is anything special. 

This images reflection is within the sunglasses which makes it mirrored. You can see the person taking the photo and the reflection is very clear. The reflection is colourless because of the effect used, however I feel if the effect wasn't used, the reflection would have colour. I like this image because it shows to subjects in to different ways, one being the boy which is the main aspect of the photo, and again of the person taking the photo, which is meant to be seen but isn't obvious. 

My own definition:

Seeing something repeated on a surface, or seeing the mirror of a person within a surface or a mirrorred surface.
