Shadow lengths change dramatically throughout the day. The length of a shadow cast on the ground is proportional to the cotangent of the sun's elevation angle – its angle ? relative to the horizon. Near sunrise and sunset, when ?=0° and cot(?) is infinite, shadows can be extremely long. If the sun passes directly overhead, then ? = 90°, cot(?)=0, and shadows are cast directly underneath objects.
