LOL at the sharkbird, that's awesome.

If I can make a suggestion, a simple 1 pixel black border around the edges of the photos might add to the shadow effect. You can also try to offset the shadow at 135* (IIRC) so that it acts as if a light source was at the top left, casting the shadow down and right.

I like them both, but the second one would be my choice.

Yeah I goofed the shadow a little bit on the last attempt. I need to circle back and fix it. The monitor I was doing it on doesn't show the subtle shades very well. Agreed on the black border. I did that on the collage for the wedding page I'm throwing together and it does look better.

Yep, it's 135 degrees, which is what I've been using all along. I just blurred it out too much (the laptop screen made it look very subtle and close-in to the photos while in photoshop).

Cleaned it up a bit:



And this is the collage I had done previously for our wedding page:

Awesome work, Sir Edward, you and Lady Cat look fantastic together.  Its beyond words when you find a kindred spirit, isn't it?

I was hoping to get some great kit photographs next week at Lilies War near Kansas City.  But, alas, it appears that logistics and finances may not permit it.
