Biowizard in Valencia

Valencia - SPAIN

 

I went to the first congres of the European Federation of Professional Photographers (FEP) in Spain. On the day after the congress, my friend Jean and I went on our own alternative photographic safari. I wanted to take a portrait of Jean in front of some amazing piece of architecture. My camerabag was stolen the day before so I didn't have my DSLR nor my pocketwizards, ST-E2 or my 580EX with me to use a flash wirelessly. So we had to get out the biowizards.

 

LIGHTING INFO:

Jean held a 580EX in his hand and pointed it towards a large white info panel about the building (camera right). I stabilised Jean's 5D on a dustbin and counted down so Jean could manually fire the flash at the same time, I pressed the shutter. We worked at 1/6th of a second to allow enough time to sync.
