Photoshop Drop shadows create nice effects when applied on the photos. They have the potential to add realism to the images by giving them a natural feel. Also, you don’t need to wait for the natural shadows to occur but Photoshop can perform the task well.


Working with the layers, nice shadow effects can be created to give a 3d look to the images. Different settings are there which helps you to find different shadow effects that you can apply on the photo depending upon the requirements. To create unexpected photo effects, use nice shadows and create proper angles so that the shadow looks perfect. Size, distance and spread matters a lot in the whole appearance of the shadow in the image so whenever you mix and match them, take care to create them in a proper manner.

Go to Photoshop and play around with creating drop shadows. Have any questions, let us know.
