The problem of bending and scattering of light rays passing outside the entrance of a wormhole with zero gravitational mass is considered. The process of ray capture by a wormhole, as well as the formation process of a shadow when illuminated by a standard screen, is investigated. These mechanisms are also compared to the case of light ray motion in the vicinity of the Schwarzschild black hole.
