Shadows look fuzzy or clear based on the size and number of light sources. Imagine a single bright lamp in a dark room, it casts a sharp shadow. But if there are many lights, like outside on a sunny day, the shadow becomes soft. This is because more light comes from different directions, making the edge of the shadow less defined.
Examples
- A person walking under a streetlight casts a clear shadow, but under several lights, it becomes blurry.
