Default Re: Reflection of Light Stupidity

I am imagining it.
Sun behind me, mirror in front of me. I would see perhaps a red wall, as in idea 1.
Then light would have come from that red wall, reflected only red light off of it, hitting the mirror (which is a gray tinted mirror in this case), reflecting red/gray light into my eyes.
So I'd see a red/gray floor.

Edit: I also see blue sky and white clouds.
Off the blue clouds the floor would be blue/gray.
Off the white clouds the intensity of the light would be dimmer than if I were to look the other way.

Edit v2: But the clouds are perfectly white, so it's fair to assume that it would reflect fairly brightly. Doesn't explain a cloudless sky though.

Edit v3: Sun behind me, mirror in front of me on the moon is weirding out my head.
Wouldn't that be the black emptiness of space? (assuming you don't see the earth)
