This simple layering technique gives us more control over the rendering of shadows, and with it we can fine-tune sharpness, distance, and spread. You can for example increase or decrease the number of shadows to create a smaller or larger spread. (Note that if you increase the number of layers you’ll have to decrease the alpha value for each layer if you wish to keep the strength somewhat the same.)
