∙ 13y agoA shadow is formed in a region where there is no light shining on it. It is distinctive to the human eye because the area surrounding the shadow has light and there will thus be a contrast. A shadow is not a tangible thing, neither is it an illusion, because it is not formed by light rays but rather, the absence of it.
On the other hand, an image, say one that is formed when you look into a mirror, or when light passes through some lens, is caused by light rays. An image can be real or virtual. Real images can be captured on a screen, while virtual images cannot be caught on a screen.
To summarize:
- shadows are a region of absence of light, while images are light rays.
