Your set up gives me something to strive for... although I do not think I can afford your set up
Thanks Conropl, but I will be the first to admit some of my favorite shots were taken with a $20 shoplight tiewrapped to a ladder and one canon flash.

but I think degrading your set up would only serve to diminish the great quality that you manage to get with your shots.
Conropl, I didn't understand this comment, could you explain

If you have some suggestions on how to get better shots with less flashes, and how to attract more HB's that would be great
Yes, I do have suggestions for both---time is short this morning, but I will try and offer some suggetstions this afternoon or this weekend when I start working on the blog.
