LadyShea, picture that you're looking at an large object in space, and picture the (P) reflected light at your retina. That's the physical location. Your retina or the film interacts with the (P) light as you focus on the object. |
What you are offering is teleportation to the retina or camera film. That is not plausible nor do you offer any explanation as to how this magic happens.
Unless the mirror image is made of matter and actually exists as or in a physical location in space, it cannot be physically interacted with by photons, and therefore cannot explain how we can photograph the sun at noon if it was just turned on at noon and therefore there are no photons on Earth. |
You're incorrect LadyShea. As I just wrote in the previous post, take out the word "reflect" from the discussion and maybe it will help you see how the efferent process allows for this interaction with the light without the photons having to travel to Earth to reach the eyes (or film), and therefore it is not violating the laws of physics. This is the last attempt I am making to try to get you to understand this process, but I don't think it's going to penetrate. |
I am not talking about reflection. No reflection in Lessans example
How can we photograph the sun at noon if it was just turned on at noon and therefore there are no photons on Earth? |
By the available light. |
The available photons are at the sun, not on Earth where they need to be to contact and be absorbed by camera film. It is noon, the sun was just turned on. No photons on Earth to touch camera film.
