What we understands from Natural Shadow
When an object transform from its own background to new one then we have to create a new shadow which called natural shadow effect.Natural shadow is created by the object original shadow.Sometimes ,object need to give a dramatic looks such as mirror effect then the designer need to remove the background as per clients/buyers recommendation. To create more attractive looking, & giving natural view we use natural shadow. Eventually, this effect can give the product a premium look.
But remember , if object doesn't have any original shadow we cant apply natural shadow on that image.
