when the sun comes up in the morning and you are facing it your shadow will be behind you and be very long (shadows are made by something blocking the light from the sun). here is an analogy: if you have ever been in a plane you will see only people heads so the sun does too and the less of you they see the smaller the shadow will be. here is a diagram: 1 = you 2 = sun 3 = shadow --- ground

2 1333333333333333333 long shadow

cause of the sunlight! when you are standing where light is your body would block some of the light and that would be your shadow.

Because the source of the light is different! It's also in a different place.

The light from the moon has a different color and intensity from sunlight, so the shadows look different (because everything looks different) in moonlight.

Morning shadows are different from afternoon shadows because the sun is in a different place, so the shadows will also be in a different place. The lengths of the shadows also depends on the angle of the light source: the more nearly overhead it is, the shorter the shadow will be.

The Earth moves in relation to the sun and so the shadows appear at different angles and length throughout the day.
