Simply because the Sun is lower in the sky.
The sun is in the Southern Hemisphere in the winter and this lower sun makes longer shadows. This is similar to the longer shadows in the afternoon, when the lower sun makes longer shadows.

What time of year are shadows longest?

Summer would probably have the the shortest shadow because the sun is right over us and winter would have the longest because the sun isn't right over us. The length of the shadow really doesn't depend on the seasons. It is really about where the sun is in the sky. But in order for there to be an actual shadow, the sun must be visible. So in summer you would find the most shadows but not the longest. You can get a long shadow in any season as long as the sun shines.

Does shadow changes during different seasons?

In mid-latitudes, yes. In high summer, shadows at noon are extremely short - almost non-existent. At sunrise and sunset, they are somewhat long. In wintertime, shadows are moderately long even at noon, and very long at sunrise and sunset. At the equator, though, shadows change little if at all year-round. Lauryn is awesome!
