The distance of the Earth from the sun does not contribute to the changing seasons. Although this distance does change (since the Earth's orbit is elliptical, not perfectly circular) the amount of the change is not great enough to affect the seasons. It is the angle of incidence of solar radiation, which in turn is affected by the axial tilt of the Earth and its revolution around the sun, which creates the changing seasons.

What does the angle of incidence have to do with seasonal change?

The angle of incidence refers to how directly sunlight strikes the Earth's surface. Seasonal changes occur because the Earth's tilt causes the angle of incidence to vary, affecting the amount of sunlight a given area receives. This variation in sunlight drives the changing seasons.
