We don't have cloud shadows in FG.

Oh, I misunderstood Rodrigues then. ;)

The other shadows look great. ...well, the shadow from the propeller should
be about as transparent as the propeller disc, but that's probably no news.

BTW: cloud shadows (and the corona on the ground around the spot where your
own shadow would be if it was visible from 2000m) gives useful information
about nearby Cu clouds (distance and thermal cycle) for a thermal soaring
pilot. At cloudbase I can't see a thing sideways. But that's for the
future. There's more to it than that to get realistic thermalling in FG.
