Herib’s Annual Sponsored Dog Walk 

Dog lovers are being asked to start training their beloved pooches, for HERIB’s charity sponsored dog walk. 

It’s taking place on Sunday 7^th September from 11.00 am. The whole idea is to have your dog sponsored to walk across The Humber Bridge and back.

The walk is in its 6^th year, last year was a great success with about 65 dogs taking part and raising over £4000.

Dogs finishing will receive a prize and a certificate with his or her name on and how much they have raised for HERIB. The dog that raises the most sponsorship will also receive a special prize.

If you don’t have a dog don’t worry as you may able to borrow one, or as last year, a few came dressed up as a dog, which was great fun, or even bring a toy one!

We have had a good response so far and are hoping for lots more to take part this year. If you can’t make that date why not organise your own walk with friends and their dogs. We will be able to provide everything you need to make it a successful day.

Anyone interested in taking part, for sponsor forms and to register, or if you need more information, please contact Jannette or Lisa on 01482 342297 or email lisac@herib.co.uk

From Monday 14th July, Peter Bell’s new limited edition ‘HIS-STORY’ is available to purchase. The picture is a celebration of Hull City’s promotion to the Premier League.

The picture is available from Myton Gallery in Hull as a Giclee* limited edition print in three sizes:

• A4 £59 mounted / £79 framed

• A3 £115 mounted / £135 framed

• A3+ £129 mounted / £149 framed

All are presented on acid free double mounts.

Peter was inspired to paint the picture after seeing how the weekend unfolded, gripping Hull; 100,000 people lining the route, 50,000 people in Victoria Square. Throughout history artists have recorded events. He wanted to create a piece as a ‘Medley of the whole weekend’ (hence the Wembley arch in the distance as an echo of the final). How an artist can bring all the elements together legitimately in a painting, where a photograph cannot.

*Giclee is the latest form of producing high-quality fine art prints, approved by the Fine-Art Trade Guild.  Using ink pigment which has a light-fast property guaranteed by the manufacturer well in excess of 50 years (they actually quote 75 under ideal conditions) printed onto high quality acid free fine art paper (in this case Hahnemuhle, a German company that has been in existence since 1584). Basically, it means that the picture doesn’t fade like lithographic prints do, and remains  accurate and vivid.

The vast majority of Limited Editions available from Myton Gallery are Giclee’s and if you would like any further information about Peter Bell’s picture, or any of the others available from the Gallery please give them a call on Hull 323743.

Kevin Greene Photography

Kevin has been a valuable asset during the busy consultation period for Building Schools for the Future. Kevin worked well from construction of the brief through to images being delivered - often under extremely tight deadlines! Kevin’s photography has ensured that the “Building Our Future” campaign is visually consistent and of an extremely high quality.

Kevin was quick to capture the style of the photography required and worked incredibly well with all age ranges of subjects, putting them at ease with his fantastic manner.

We are very happy with the quality and speed of Kevin’s work and would thoroughly recommend him to any business looking to improve their image. Best Regards.

What you did for us was a wonderful job and what you did on the golf day the photos were really excellent!

Jason Hy - Golf Event Shipley

After knowing Kevin for several years it was again great to work with him. Kevin was able to clarify our thinking over the types of shots we required and did a great piece of work with groups of children and young people in various settings. He responded to our tight deadline and was flexible and accommodating in his approach. He was quickly able to put both adults and children and young people involved in the project at their ease and his particular strength in working with children and young people came to the fore. The work he produced was of a high standard and was exactly what we were after- it was innovative, bright and fun. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending him to other colleagues and would employ Kevin again.

We’ve been very happy with the work Kevin Greene has done for us over the past twelve months which has been of a consistently high standard and executed with the minimum of fuss (you can’t imagine what it’s like dealing with some press photographers!)  Kevin Greene’s work has been both creative and professional - my only concern is that of letting other people know about him!

The press officer for the EEF was most impressed with Kevin’s ability to work so well with people. It is very rare that we actually get people commenting on photographers and I therefore congratulate him on a job well done! We look forward to working with Kevin again & again.

Business Link magazine.

Kevin Greene has been undertaking photography for us since his business began in early 2007 - during this time we have been very impressed with his professional approach and the high quality of his work. His ability has proven itself over and over again and this has certainly helped keep our magazine ahead of our rivals.

Dear Kevin

Your portrait work for my family produced high quality and personable results which were pleasing to all of us. The service level was high and attentive, not least as the exercise coincided with the arrival of your son. We would not hesitate to recommend you to others and found in particular that you handled the exercise with sensitivity as we had to gather our family together from all around the country. Kind Regards.

Hi Kevin,
 
I hope you’re well.
 
As a family we really enjoyed meeting you and appreciated your professional and personal approach.
 
Innovative ideas such as taking the photos outside with the family pets worked well and helped to create a relaxed and natural environment (which I view as the key to good photography).
 
We had a real laugh during the picture taking - I especially enjoyed Dad’s fetching look in the fisherman’s hat - Classic.

Overall you managed to capture some lovely (quite touching) moments, and Mum, Dad and I spent a great deal of time admiring the work you’d done.  Thank you.  Kind regards.

Melanie
