Not bad, but I would use a low flash setting (if you have a flash that is adjustable) to add some "fill light" and get rid of the shadow.

Shadows are not always the enemy.
In this shot, I think his light box did an awesome job of illumination while creating some emphasis with the slight shadow cast by the cigar coffin.
I think it looks striking to see the slight shadow on the front, showing you backlit more, than the conventional shadow to the back when front lighting. It looks more to me as a mirror reflection than a shadow.
Nice job indeed with this photo.

True, if thats the affect the photographer is going for. Alot of advertisements for products will usually not show any shadowing. Leaving the appearance of the object "floating" I guess you could say. They do this because the don't want anything causing a distraction or taking somebody's eyes off the product, including shadows. I wasn't sure if he was going for that affect or not, but alot of people that use a light box try for that look.

Actually, if you are referring to the "shadow" in the front, it is actually a reflection. I had a 16 x 20 pane of glass in the bottom of the light box.

That's what I thought.
It in fact looks like a reflection as I stated earlier.
Gives it a three dimensional feel.
