Why the shadow appear long and some times appear short?
The length of a shadow is governed by the position of the light which shines upon an object. Take yourself for instance, if you stand with your back to a just rising sun all of its light is blocked by your body causing your shadow to be long. If you are able to stand in the same position for a long time you will notice your shadow becoming shorter. This is because the light of the sun shines on a smaller area of your body causing your shadow to shorten. If the sun was directly overhead you would only see a very small shadow around your feet. As the sun lowers in the sky in front of you the reverse happens and your shadow starts to get longer.
