Saw this on Strobist and thought I'd post here. Not my gear, not my photo. I've included the correct attribution I think.

Click the photo above will take you to a page with links to results. Not my photos so I'm reluctant to post them here.

Not entirely sure I'd go down this path, more of a novelty I think. Much prefer the lighting results some of the guys here are getting with more conventional setups eg LordV, liewk, orionmystery, dalantech, and racketman.
