      I know it’s a pretty technical question. But I heard somewhere that dielectric materials do not reflect colors. Only metal materials do that.

      Maybe I missed something, but if I am right, shouldn’t the jar reflection on the sphere be the color of the light source only ?

        Hey Alban, all color that you see is reflected light, but you’re totally right that the specular of a non-metal material should be the same as the light source.
