multiple images of multiple objects at same point, how a reflecting point can produce multiple image rays to each of us to see diff objects?
Sight happens when an image falls on retina from object.
With Different angles of observation, placing mirror constant, we can see different images. Many people can different images as their different sight of observations.
What happens at that very particular point where hundreds of our friends see for different images, light should be redirected into our friends of retina, hundreds if not millions of different can be seen on same point with different angles of observation. Logically or physically what happens at that very particular point.

Here's a curiosity that you may not have heard about. Scientists are developing a camera that can see around corners - and it works. Take a photograph of an open door using a flash camera. Some of the photons bounce off the door and into the closed off room. then, because photons bounce around, some of them bounce back and hit the door again, and some of those make their way back to the camera, which is able to process them based on the speed of light.
It then gives a "rough" image and can detect people who are behind the wall next to you. Interesting, huh?
