Photo Competition Entries available to view online

YOU CAN NOW VIEW all the entries submitted to the Capturing the East Riding Photography Competition on the East Riding Council website.

More than 700 entries have been uploaded and can now be viewed in the online galleries.

The competition was open to all amateur photographers and saw a range of entries from individuals and community groups.

Today, Friday 2nd December 2011, judges will select the top 100 entries for inclusion in an exhibition at Beverley Art Gallery next year.

Hilary Saynor, chair of the East Riding Cultural Partnership, who organised the competition, said: “Over 180 people were inspired to enter the competition and we have been impressed by the standard of their entries. Participants have shown us the people, places and events that make their communities different and interesting. Their photos, together as a collection, demonstrate that the East Riding clearly has much to offer as a place to live and visit.”

Of course we are not biased on the Hedon Blog – well, not too much! – but we do like the frozen shots of Hedon submitted by Jim Uney and the Midsummer Sunset from Paull submitted by Diane Davies, and the sunset over Paull by D O’connor :-)

Please take the time to have a look at all these truly stunning photos:

New council website… and sneak preview at HU12 Online…

HU12 REVIEWS the new East Riding of Yorkshire Council website which is being developed. It seems very good!

You can find the Review at Try out East Riding Council’s new website

…But whilst on the subject of new websites – you might like to have a sneak preview of the new HU12 Online website that will replace the existing HU12.net in the near future.

It’s still being constructed and we can add lots of new bells and whistles! So please give any views and ideas that you may have!

View local planning applications on East Riding Council Website.

DESPITE being a regular online browser of information on the East Riding of Yorkshire Council website I am still discovering new facilities.

One of the most obvious ways to get the most out of the council website is to click myeastriding and put your post code into the search box. You then have nine options to find out local information. Whilst “my events” delivered sparse results for Hedon, the search for “my planning” was altogether more productive.

I found two interesting planning applications; one for the erection of a cafe/bar at Johnson’s on Thorn Road Corner and another for the building of a 420 place school building at Inmans Primary School following the demolition of the existing building.

You can even give your own comments about planning applications online.
