the shadow would be longer in the winter i couldn't tell you why, though
Days are longer than nights in the summer, and the reverse in the winter.
In autumn, the length of a shadow can vary depending on the angle of the sun, the time of day, and the geographical location. Shadows tend to be longer in autumn due to the lower position of the sun in the sky, resulting in longer shadows compared to the summer months.
In the summer - or more specifically, on the summer solstice (June 21 in the northern hemisphere, December 21 in the southern hemisphere) the noon Sun is as high in the sky as it will get. If the Sun were directly overhead, you would cast no shadow at all. As summer progresses into fall, the noon Sun will be lower and lower in the sky until the winter solstice, when the noon Sun is low in the sky, and the noon shadows will be longer.
I think its summer. As stated, the question is really in the realm of psychology or social psychology. Do people tend to let their hair grow longer during one season or another? My first guess would be that if we measured average hair length during different seasons it would be slightly longer in the winter.
If Earth were smaller but the Alexandria-to-Syene distance remained the same, the angle of the sun's rays would change due to the decreased curvature of the Earth. This would result in a longer shadow cast by a vertical pillar in Alexandria at noon during the summer solstice, as the sun would be positioned lower in the sky compared to a larger Earth. Thus, the shorter radius of the smaller Earth would lead to a longer shadow.
Earth's orbit around the Sun is not a perfect circle; rather, it is an elipse. In winter (the northern winter; in the southern hemisphere this would be the summer), Earth is closer to the Sun, and moves faster.

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.
because if summer games were in the winter where would they have golfing
WINter it is the oppsite of the south when its summer there its winter here and when its fall here itsspring there
When it is summer in the US it is Winter in Australia.
