That is also what you see in RL. Look at the shadow of a tree in sunshine: 
the shadow is sharpest at the base of the tree and gets more diffuse towards 
the end of the shadow.
In this image there is an interplay between soft shadows (from more distant 
columns) and - for instance - the sharp shadow of the package in the middle 
ground.
