Thanks very much, guys. We were experimenting with one and two lights (Bowens 500W monolights) with different types of light shapers (softbox, beauty dishes with and without grids, umbrellas, reflectors). Good to see the different effects. Also different backgrounds - black and white.
H - I was quite surprised at the remote triggers. Not sure what brand they were, but they weren't Pocket Wizards. And although he had several receivers, he only used a receiver on one light, the other he used the built in optical slave. I would have thought if you have the triggers, use them.
I've got CyberSyncs and the range and reliability of them is very good for what I want/need. Got some umbrellas too, reversible. Pretty much the basic "Strobist" kit, with stands etc. I went for portability. Now I know a bit more how to put it all together, I'll have to use the bloody things now if I can find the time!
