Your shadow will fall in the direction opposite the source of light - with you between the light source and the shadow. The direction of your shadow relative to you will depend on what direction you are facing.
- If you are facing toward the light source, the shadow will be behind you.
- If you are facing away from the light source, it will be in front of you.
- If you have the light source to your right, the shadow will be to your left.
- If you have the light source to your left, the shadow will be to your right.
- If the light source is directly above you, the shadow will be directly under you.
- If you move past a light source, your shadow will move from behind you to beside you and then to in front of you.

Why does a shadow form behind an opaque object?
Light from the sun (or any other source) travels in particles, which strike objects and are often partially absorbed. A shadow forms behind a tree because when the particles hit the tree, they are absorbed and reflected, so that everything on the other side of the tree, where the light would have gone, receives no light. However, some light will bounce off of other objects and go behind the tree in the other particles' place. Since this other light will already have been partially absorbed, it will be more dim than direct light. Because of this, we are able to see in the shadow, but since the light there is not as strong, it is darker. This darker region behind the tree, is the shadow.

This phenomenon occurs because shadows are formed in the direction opposite to the light source.
