Answer: Option D

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Evening sun is not a shot as the mid-day sun because in the evening, radiations travel larger distance through atmosphere. Light from the sun, near the horizon, passes through thicker layers of air and covets a large distance in the earth's atmosphere before reaching our eyes. However, light from the sun overhead would travel realitively shorter distance.
