While it may seem easy, taking pictures of reflections can be tricky. The first thing everyone does is run to the nearest body of water and snap pics at sunset. Pretty, but then you end up with the internet, full of the same damn picture. Next most people snap photos in car hubcaps, or the side of a toaster. I urge you to be more creative, and remember that rules are made to be broken, there are some stunning lake/hubcap/toaster images still yet to be taken, its just really difficult to make them different.
Remember that if you are using a point and shoot, the metering system will look at the brightest and biggest part of your scene and choose its settings off of that. So you may end up with a fuzzy photo if it is too dark, or an underexposed photo if the glinting sun causes the camera to crank down the aperture. Be aware of the scene and you'll do fine.
