Reflection

Hi! I'm having some trouble about reflection. As you can see in the attached images, the reflection of the table is different from what the table looks like. Can anyone help me with this one? Thanks user added image

Without looking at the scene I can't say for sure. Right now it just looks like the highlight on the floor is being reflected.

Hide the table. Does the blue light still show up? It's probably coming from another source.


Imagination is more important than knowledge.

Nope. The blue light is gone.

I should have been clearer. The blue light looks like the glass reflecting the counter top reflecting that's reflecting the sky that's reflection off the floor. Oh god, that's me being more precise lol.

Yeah, I got what you're saying there but the corner top shouldn't have a reflection of the light outside as we see in the highlighted area

And whatever should be blocking the sky, is visible in reflections?
