Скачать или смотреть Photoshop Quick Tip: Don't forget your contact shadow

In image composites, light and shadow are very important to making an image believable. One aspect of the shadows that one should pay special attention to (so as not to forget about it) is the contact shadow. Its the darkest shadow, the thinnest line of shadow between the object you want to place in your image and the surface within the image you want to place it on. It will help you attain a greater sense of realism in your images when done correctly.
