Congrats, Walt. That will get you started for indoor portraiture quite
nicely, and you can use an umbrella and stand with your speedlight
outdoors too.
Thanks, Bruce. I'm looking forward to trying that out soon. Hopefully,

There you go: problem solved! Big windows and white walls are

from the windows and you have million dollar studio

If you were in Canada I'd say pay him with beer and toques.
You have to be careful though, that you don't end up one toque over the line.

With your luck you'll find hot studio space and some large models.
I blame Bruce for all of this, of course.

Thanks for the link, Paul. I looked at those quite a while back. I
wasn't really in the market for strobes at the time. Looking at them
again, they have quite a few perks. Small, light, nifty colors, etc.

I have three of them,
