A drop shadow is a graphic design effect where a shadow is applied to an object, such as text or an image, to create a sense of depth and make the element stand out from its background. This effect is achieved by placing a shadow behind the object at a specified angle, distance, and blur radius, giving the illusion that the object is floating above the surface. Drop shadows can be customized in terms of color, opacity, and offset to enhance visual appeal and readability.
