The best thing about digital photography is that it really encourages you to experiment. I came from the film world, it took me a long time to lose the conservation habits I had developed because I wouldnt want to waste film. With digital if I dont like something I just erase it.
Recently when I bought a new strobe for my Canon, the first thing I did was take about 50 or so pictures, using every mode and every angle to see what the effect would be.
What I would do is mount your camera on a tripod, setup some props that would give you a consistent result and show lots of depth and texture (and wouldnt complain about having to sit still for 50+ shots) and just try out every combination you can think of.
