Lighting setup diagram for this photo
OK. After taking a few landscape photos (you know those romantic pic with beautiful HK island), I suddenly had a new idea to have some fun.
I passed my spare 1D to johnny and asked him to be a photographer for Christina. In order to make it look real, I mounted a 550EX on it and it has to be triggered with other flashes.
I had 4 x EX550 in total and 3 pocket wizard, so one of the 550EX (on my 5D) act as a master to trigger the flash on 1D)
my assistant (Siu B) held another 550EX (on monopod) over the edge to provide some hair light to them in order to separate them from the background (the dark sky). Look at the photo, the hair light is not very good, I think I didn't set enough power, or Siu B didn't extend it far enough.
