Chris coates, the only bit of advice i would have is about the colours... i dont know if you have any software or not but it needs some colour bringing back and some of the blacks made darker to really enahnce it.
But the main thing is, do you like it? If so thats all that matters

This shot was taken with a SB900 on the right and SB800 on the left. My SB900 kept over heating and was a head ache. I used PocketWizard TT1 and TT5 to trigger the flashes both in TTL. I think this weekend I'm going to try adding 3rd flash to fill that dark area on the bottom.
