Hey Guys and Gals

I've just had the shock of a lifetime.

I saw my uncle a couple of months ago and he asked how the photography was going. I told him that it was OK but I was having to turn away business as my beginners lighting setup (Interfit 150) was playing up.

He rang this evening to say he was coming down, I opened the door and he said this box was on the doorstep.

I opened up the box to find a set of 2 x Bowens Gemini 750+ lights with the largest softbox I have personally seen along with all the usual bits and bobs. To say I was gob-smacked was an understatement.

So, what I'd like to know from the experts our there is any hints, tips and general practises I should be following with these lights. I had been looking at Elinchrom BxRi's, don't need to now ;)

Cheers
