What happens to the length of your shad ow in winter vrs summer?

Answer 1

In the summer - or more specifically, on the summer solstice (June 21 in the northern hemisphere, December 21 in the southern hemisphere) the noon Sun is as high in the sky as it will get. If the Sun were directly overhead, you would cast no shadow at all. As summer progresses into fall, the noon Sun will be lower and lower in the sky until the winter solstice, when the noon Sun is low in the sky, and the noon shadows will be longer.
