538Warchild Balloon Timelapse

DJ’s Erick E, Fedde Le Grand and radio DJ Niek van der Bruggen threw a balloon powered houseparty at 4500 feet for the Radio538 & Warchild charity week.

Check the photos here:

This video is a time-lapse of over 1400 images shot over 3 hours at a 6 second interval with a Canon 5D + Canon 20mm f2.8. Autofocus was set at AI servo with the full range focalpoints on.

Due to the fact that the setup was in the shade of the balloon I opted for a “safe” Aperture setting of f2.8 at 160ISO realizing this would lead to some exposure errors. There was no real way to avoid it and it worked out well, especially when the balloon was freed from the other two and sunlight hit the DJ and the tables.

The largest Dutch radio station and the charity that helps children and parents from war-torn regions setup a stunt-filled week to raise funds to help as many children as possible. People could get chosen to do all sorts of stunt by texting the special number. Persons lucky enough to send the xxth text message were chosen for the stunt. In this case 60 people for a rare feat: tying three hot air ballons for a house party at 4500 feet!

Balloons were donated by A3 Ballonvaart!

As a senior Radio538 photographer, I was asked to photograph one of the coolest stunts of the week and got to climb aboard the formerly largest hot air balloon in the world with a group of collegues.

View from 25 meters high in the RTL Netherlands television crane at the back of the Radio538 Koninginnedag concert area. Koninginnedag (or Queensday) is basically the biggest yearly national party in the Netherlands and the Radio538 hosts a large free festival in Amsterdam which about 200.000 people attend during the course of the day.

The panorama is a stitch of several Canon 5DmkII images to make it one 25 megapixel super panorama. Watch out for more to come.

Queensday Concert 2009 with 2 Unlimited, DJ Jean & Tiesto

Idols winner Nikki

One of the strangest days ever: April 30th 2009. What started out as a bright sunshiny happy day quickly turned into the sobering reality of somebody crazy enough to destroy innocent lives for a mindless attack on the royal family. Koninginnedag 2009 will forever be the one with a black lining. However, as one cannot send 150.000 people back home instantly: the show on the Museumplein simply just had to go on. A good show nonetheless but obviously most people lost a bit of their partymood (yours truly included)… A weird day indeed and therefore just a small gallery this time. Full series here (19 photo’s).

About 100.000 people visit the concert, the largest one for Queensday.
