In my rush to make sure I had lighting equipment to cover every possible contingency I lost sight of my understanding that simplicity was essentially the key to the style I like best. Every light I add to a portrait seems to diminish its intimacy and its power. I keep trying to remember the lessons I've learned. It's not important to use all the gear at your disposal. In fact, it may be injurious to seeing your style clearly.
Just a thought.

Ah Kirk, thank you; you've helped me keep a few bucks in my pocket.
p.s. Fome-Cor is so cheap!
