Shadow
and reflection impact a photograph by altering the amount of light
falling on it. Shadow does so by blocking light at different intensities
and angels while reflection exposes a photograph to direct light.
Typically,
a shadow results when an object blocks light and casts its darkness. In
other words it is the absence of light due to obstruction. Reflection
on the other hand is when an object reflects backlight that falls on its
surface. Illumination is an essential feature of photography. The
amount of light, the angle with which light is used impacts the
photograph. Both shadow and reflection are important with respect to photography.
