I'm mainly worried about everything you've mentioned here besides the iPhone being too weak - I know that raising the ISO will increase the intensity of the light, but the color temperature is the problem here. Chances are if I go this route, the background which is going to be lit by street lamps will be ORANGE .

But I guess that's why we piece it together so we can individually treat the photos?

Here's the EXIF info for the photo -
  • Camera Model - Ixpress 132C - Hasselblad H1
  • Creation Software - Adobe Photoshop CS2 Mac
  • Shutter Speed - 1/405 sec ()
  • Lens Aperture - f/17.8
  • ISO Speed - ISO 100

Take a look at the ISO and shutter speed. That's impossible to do in the actual night environment without a strobe. I may have to get a traditional light-bulb lamp to light the subject and put the strobe behind the green drape.
