I love the power of Photoshop; it makes even improbable events look real, like these Photoshop illusions that play with shadow. It’s amazing how a simple concept like a shadow can evoke feelings and self-image, like the photos in this gallery. A simple image of a flower gains far more meaning when its shadow is drooped gloomily. So too does the image of the mechanical hummingbird gain more meaning as it sees its fully-plumed reflection in the mirror.
