Images from the 2011 edition of Defqon.1. For the first time held in the Biddinghuizen area in the Netherlands. Again an amazing day plagued by not so good weather but an atmoshpere that more than made up for it.
Images from the 2011 edition of the Radio538 Queensday concert at the Museumplein in the Netherlands. With 300.000 visitors over the course of the day (the square holds about 100.000 people!) the largest festival on “Koninginnedag” in the Netherlands, the day we celebrate the royal family and our national heritage on April 30th.

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.
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!
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.

ID&T’s successor to Trance Energy took off last night: under a slightly changed name, ENERGY, a more house-based concept attracted a full-house in the Utrecht Jaarbeurs venue. With killer sets from Marco V, Avicii and Tiesto things went wild into the small hours.
Please enjoy these photos, wallpapers will be uploaded later and hopefully, when I get permission photos from Tiesto, Sander van Doorn and Ferry Corsten. Also, don’t forget to check out the ID&T ENERGY website!
A collegue of mine noticed this photo in my Tomorrowland 2010 set and suggested to crop it a bit differently. As it all made sense I adjusted the image slightly (cropping it from portrait to square and upping the curves a bit). Other than that, the image hardly needed any adjusting.
Taking it was difficult with such poor light and my 70-200 (without IS) mounted. Fortunately I have a steady hand and squeezed a pretty much motion-blurr-less 1/15th of a second at f2.8 and 800ISO.
