Default Great Reflector

The kids were out front playing basketball and I was in the garage playing with my camera. I still haven't figured out what was reflecting but I thought it was neat!

Great reflection. Off the windshield of the car perhaps? That would be one expensive reflector, but highly mobile!

Thank you all...Mike, I don't think it was a car since there were no cars in the driveway. My garage door is white but it was open so it couldn't be that. I'll have to set-up on a sunny day again and see if I can "see" the light again.

Hayward, my child, Morgan, is the "wider" one in these pictures, he'll be 16 next month. The other boy is one of the neighborhood children.
