Largest 10:10 Aerial Photograph Ever (so far)

UPDATE: Check out the video from Ellard Vasen

This past Saturday, in the little town of Vlaardingen near Rotterdam, an estimated 1500 Scouts gathered to create this aerial image of 10:10. The event was organized by JMA (Jongeren Milieu Actief) in Amsterdam. This is arguably the largest 10:10 image ever recorded. It reminds us of the goal to reduce emissions by 10% in 2010 and how important it is that we to get to work during and after the Global Work Party on October 10, 2010.

What are you planning for 10:10? Check out 10:10global.org or 350.org to find a work party near you or start your own.

    Hey Matt,
    We used a crane, best way to get a steady shot and look through the viewfinder. However, why don’t you consider organizing a group of people for 10:10:10 and creating an aerial image of your own using your helis. I think that would be a great idea, and would be a great way to get involved. Register your event at 350.org or 1010global.org. Then submit your image and watch it travel the world on the day of the Global Work Party.
