David, thank you for the info. I appreciate your writing down so much...It seems very overwhelming and I can't see myself doing all this very technical timing with flash units. By the time I get set up, the idea will have flown, not to mention that I could pull out all my hair. I suppose one day I will advance to this stage!!! At any rate, thank you for explaining lighting for me, and I have saved what you wrote for future reference. Best, Sharon
