I've been reading the perspective handbook and I'm at this specific rule:

>8. Lines through the image plane that intersect the extended line VS create image lines perpendicular to the horizon line.

I understood this, but then it says:

>Rule 8 explains why reflections from bodies of water always form a vertical smear directly under the light source (image, right): the reflections all lie along a line from the base of the light source to the station point, and therefore form a vertical line on the image plane.

What the fuck? I can't understand the water reflection part. Why are they all vertical?
