node-canvas shadowBlur test

gistfile1.js

// Step 1:
// Retrieve test image:
// wget http://s3.amazonaws.com/tastrix/440/large_orig/shiso_trans.png
//
// Step 2:
// Then, run this through node.js
//
// Step 3:
// Inspect shade_test.png; the overlayed squares have drop shadow with Gaussian blur, the circle of leaves does not
