Fix fake-looking shadows and reflections on a product

№ 67

№ The prompt

The shadow and reflection under this product look fake. Redo them so the product reads as sitting on a real surface: cast a single soft contact shadow that matches the product's existing light direction, and keep any reflection faint — well below mirror strength, fading out quickly below the product. Remove any hard-edged or floating shadow. Do not change the product itself, its label, or the background. The goal is a believable ground contact, not a dramatic effect.

№ How to use it

  • Input

    A product shot with a hard, mismatched, or floating shadow, or an over-strong mirror reflection.

  • Preserve

    Honest failure-fix framing: the product, its label, and the background stay unchanged — only the shadow and reflection are redone to one light direction.

  • Avoid

    A hard-edged or floating shadow, a full mirror reflection, or a shadow that contradicts the product's lighting.
