Unfortunately I couldn't get the shadows out of the picture. But I think it still came out clear enough.
What you needed was another light source from the other direction to get rid of the shadows. If you don’t have another available light source, here’s a tip that I sometimes use. Use a mirror to reflect light onto the dark area. If you don’t have a small handheld mirror for some reason, you can use some aluminum foil and tape it to some cardboard.
