In case anyone does not know, don't get rid of all the shadows. Shadow-less shots can look out of focus. I learned that from an architectural photographer when he critiqued my work.
Does anyone know a book that focuses on furniture or object photography? Most books and magazines cover landscape, portraits etc.
I don't, and this is not what you asked, but this book is indispensable.

Thanks for the suggestion...I will see if I can lay my hand on it. I can't agree more with this "Photographic lighting is a topic that will never go out of style, no matter how sophisticated cameras and other technology get." Some of my friends have very high-end DSLR cameras (their lenses alone cost more than my whole camera set-up!), but in my view, they spend not enough on lighting (either in money or in attention).
Edit: Found one for under $4.5, softcover, free shipping.

What camera are you using? Perhaps it is faulty.
