Water reflection images are similar to mirror reflections, but instead of the mirror being placed on the right or left, the reflection occurs in water, typically in a way that the object appears upside down and vertically flipped. These kinds of questions typically ask how an object would look when reflected in water, taking into account that the reflection is mirrored along a horizontal axis.
