Our main attraction: Hard Rock Calling! We headed down to Hyde Park this afternoon for a fun filled day of food, drinks and Rock music… Gaslight Anthem, Dave Matthews Band and BRUUUUUUUUUUUCE were today’s headliners.
All you need on a nice sunny day for a concert in the park: a food menu, cocktails and an iPhone to keep the folks at home up to date of what you’re doin’.
Quite an experience actually: we enjoyed Dave Matthews Band from the terrace of the Hard Rock Cafe. We had a couple of drinks and a bite to eat. DMB’s show was superb. Quite possibly the best intro for what was coming.
‘Cause in the end, it’s all about Bruce! Bruce and the Band opened with London Calling. Almost as expected, but certainly something I had hoped for. And after a little disappointment from the show at Pink Pop, I knew this show was gonna be good.
There was a whole bunch of highlights: finally got Youngstown! But also had Trapped, Radio Nowhere and Rosalita. Would have been great if Bruce would have played my double request, but my 2 songs didn’t make it.
Bruce left us with this sign from the audience…
Day 1 of a 3 day trip to London. Seein’ Springsteen live tomorrow at the Hard Rock Calling festival in Hyde Park. A smooth trip with the Eurostar and a bright sunny day in London. Dropped off our gear at the hotel and headed in to town.
First stop: the Science Museum. We went to see Fly me to the Moon at their IMAX theater. Great flick! If you like 3D animation, go and see it. Oooh… And did you know it was made in Belgium?
After dinner Luc and I took a little walk around the city. An excellent opportunity to shoot some pictures. Kinda liked this shot… Houses of Parliament: Sunset on Democracy or just another tourist snap shot? You decide…
We’re watching Springsteen at the Glastonbury festival on TV right now. He’s doin’ The River right now: he looks like he is on fire. Sweaty steam coming from his shoulders. Can’t wait until tomorrow’s show… it’s gonna be a blast.
Like the enchanting song of the Sirens, I can’t resist its call…

A while back, I shot a series of photos at the Geel Triathlon. At home, this picture caught my attention. The person in the photo, her expression caught my eye. I told a few of my friends that I would love to do a shoot with her. And with the help of my buddies Stefan and Glenn, I was able to get in touch with her…
Karolien is a promising and ambitious Triathlete. She has set her sights on the 2012 Olympics in London. She’s working hard to get there, but she was kind enough to agree to a shoot with me.
Thanks for the shoot Karolien! Your enthousiasm is inspiring!
A couple of shots from the 2009 Open Days of the Royal Dutch Airforce. Volkel AFB was host to this year’s Open Days.
Great show! It was slightly cloudy, but that only makes the photos more attractive. And the cloud base was fairly high so the demo teams could perform their high altitude shows. Highlights of the day: the beautifully painted F-16 demo of the Dutch airforce and the Red Arrows.
I did miss part of the show though… Fell asleep in our little tent and missed about 45 minutes of the show. I must have been very tired. Actually, I was! So tired that I dropped my 5D. It fel on to our blanket in front of the tent and on to the soft grass of Volkel AFB from about a 4 feet high. Fortunately, ’cause the camera took no damage.
