Example 1:
# Import library from Image from wand.image import Image
# Import the image with Image(filename = '../geeksforgeeks.png' ) as image:
# Clone the image in order to process
with image.clone() as shadow:
# Invoke shadow function
shadow.shadow( 0.8 , 0.2 , 10 , 40 )
# Save the image
shadow.save(filename = 'shadow1.jpg' )

Example 2:
# Import libraries from the wand from wand.image import Image
from wand.drawing import Drawing
from wand.color import Color
with Drawing() as draw: # Set Stroke color the circle to black
draw.stroke_color = Color( 'black' )
# Set Width of the circle to 2
draw.stroke_width = 1
# Set the fill color to 'White (# FFFFFF)'
draw.fill_color = Color( 'white' )
# Invoke Circle function with center at 50, 50 and radius 25
draw.circle(( 200 , 200 ), # Center point
( 100 , 100 )) # Perimeter point
# Set the font style
draw.font = '../Helvetica.ttf'
# Set the font size
draw.font_size = 30
with Image(width = 400 , height = 400 , background = Color( '# 45ff33' )) as pic:
# Set the text and its location
draw.text( int (pic.width / 3 ), int (pic.height / 2 ), 'GeeksForGeeks !' )
# Draw the picture
draw(pic)
# Invoke shadow function method
pic.shadow( 0.3 , . 1 , 1 , 2 )
# Save the image
pic.save(filename = 'shadow2.jpg' )
