PHP – WP Codes :

Thats how i am extracting images from genesis.

            $img = genesis_get_image() ? genesis_get_image( array( 'size' => 'Header Square' ) ) : '<img src="' . get_bloginfo( 'stylesheet_directory' ) . '/images/related.png" alt="' . get_the_title() . '" />';

            $related .= '<li><a href="' . get_permalink() . '" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to' . get_the_title() . '">' . $img . '<span class="related-heading">' . get_the_title() . '</span></a></li>';

after doing all this stuff i am still unable to see box-shadow, Actually shadow is there at its actual place but due to z-index i think i am unable to visible shadow.

please kindly help me to resolve the issue.

thank you.
