Ever wondered what is in Pro's kit?

As mentioned on a previous post, after being hit with a $1700 excess luggage bill a few years back on a London-Melbourne Flight for my broncolor mobil kit and extras. I downsized to a minimal kit of  consisting of speedlights (that at first I had to get over how amateur  I thought it was to use these flashes on jobs). They are incredibly versatile and I use them for almost everything.

I have them all in my old filter and light/colour meter case that is covered in the signatures from the people I have photographed over the years.
