The MacOS screenshot utility adds a nice drop shadow to your screenshots.
You can apply a similar drop shadow to any image using ImageMagick.
Make sure ImageMagick is installed:
brew install imagemagick
brew install imagemagick
Then, run:
convert screenshot-without-shadow.png \( +clone -background black -shadow 80x20+0+15 \) +swap -background transparent -layers merge +repage screenshot-with-shadow.png
convert screenshot-without-shadow.png \( +clone -background black -shadow 80x20+0+15 \) +swap -background transparent -layers merge +repage screenshot-with-shadow.png
That's it!
