I'm trying to create a shadow effect (with java) on an image.
I've seen multiple related questions and I've implemented several of the suggested solutions. Unfortunately I always have the same problem: the shadow effect repaints the entire image in gray (i.e. the shadow color) - hence the original image is not visible anymore.
Example of code I tested (based on the JIDE freely available library):
ShadowFactory sf = new ShadowFactory(2, 0.5f, Color.black);
ImageIO.write(sf.createShadow(ImageIO.read(new File("c:\\out2.png"))), "png", new File("c:\\out3.png"));
No need to says that I tested this with multiple source files (out2.png).
I'm clueless: any hint/help would be highly appreciated.

The over all theory is simple. Basically, you need to generate a mask of the image (using a AlphaComposite and fill that resulting image with the color you want (also using an AlphaComposite. This, of course, all works on the alpha channel of the image...
Once you have that mask, you need to combine the two images (overlaying the original image with the masked image)
This examples make use of JHLabs filters to supply the blur...
