From that set up, I can now see the lighting IS the critical thing you need to solve. Try shooting in the evening, and without other distracting light sources. And definitely, get two lights. One lamp like that is not enough. It's impossible to direct the light at your subject using a lamp like that. IF you can, get two small desk lamps, and better yet, if they have bendable necks. You can even use something as cheap as two work bench <a href="http://www.lowes.com/pd_595015-78400-U31075_0__?productId=50238595&Ntt=clip+on+lights&pl=1&currentURL=%3FNtt%3Dclip%2Bon%2Blights&facetInfo=" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.lowes.com/pd_595015-78400-U31075_0__?productId=50238595&Ntt=clip+on+lights&pl=1&currentURL=%3FNtt%3Dclip%2Bon%2Blights&facetInfo=" rel="nofollow">clip-on lamps</a>.
