That is pretty good I would say! Now, if you want to ask for help, sure but let us know what you did so that we can start guessing at what to improve. – Itai Oct 07 '13 at 02:39

3If you mean the darkened corner, you just need more even lighting. Looks pretty good. If there's a dark area, throw light on it. Or you can easily fix that in post. – MikeW Oct 07 '13 at 02:43

I'm with the rest, what's the problem with that? The corner is easy to fix, the rest looks great. – Joanne C Oct 07 '13 at 03:31

The short answer: You need more light on the background so that you can intentionally blow it out without blowing out the product. Then expose so that the background is on the verge of blowing out. In post-processing push the exposure for the highlights up until the background is pure white.
This has been covered many times here in the past:
