As soon as I can find a suitable piece of kit i.e. second hand flash gun I'm going to have play for myself following all Don and the other poters advice.
Jon,
I have also been down the bulb and brolly route. Would not even consider it now. What at one time I found hard, is now not so, and if I can help I will.

Any questions - just post them here. If you mention the camera you are using I can go to DP Review to check it out - should stop me saying something stupid.

Don
