Well one Speedlite and One Dlite 4 actually.
So its 50C degrees out here in dubai and summer just started. Wanted to do an outdoor shoot so opted to do it after the sunset (last week took a shower while shooting around sunset, too hot and humid). The Temp drops by 15-20 points few hours after sunset so gave it a try.

To add misery, I had never before this shoot tried a setup with multiple lights before so was really scared of how this will go and with all the ratios, balancing light and stuff.

Here are three from the shoot, will post couple more as soon as they are processed. These images were amongst the last ones, good 1.5 hours after I pulled out the second light, so there were atleast 50-60 tries before that.

Awaiting feedback, please be harsh and go all out. I need to learn.

About how i Lit.
Background is 580EXII with red gell way in the back full power.
Front DLite4 with Kacey BD powered thru VBM, raised high and then angled down and a little bit feathered to avoid hotspot on face. I used the BD to form more of a spot light i think. Power was 4.5 on DLite Scale. Next time will try to keep it near

Triggered by YN RF602, Shot with 5D MKII and 135L
