Workers of all nations,
We’re equal so let’s unite!
Establish a political movement,
That serves us right.
We have to convince others,
About the virtues of our idealistic road.
A heavy burden, a difficult task,
But we’re all able to carry such a load.
Yellow, white, black or red,
No matter if you are small or long,
If we truly stand as one,
Our combined force is mighty strong.

Industrial beauty.
Giant structure.
Concrete formwork

Brand new GT46ACe locomotives purchased by the Manildra Group (marked as the MAN Class) MAN003 & MAN002 make their way through Doonside on run 8976 pulling a set of grain wagons from Manildra to Nowra.

WHITE is the topic for 5th May 2011
I love shooting honey bees. And their hives just happen to be White! I have always been able to get right up to the hives with out needing the hood and gloves. I had a few land on me and see if I was packing any pollen.

Percy Pertemps is a cheery tribute to Birmingham’s diverse and dedicated workforce and to the West Midlands recruitment company, formed in 1961, that has since grown into a national organisation. Various jobs are represented in this celebration of the rights and interests of Birmingham’s Pertemps professionals and the contribution they make to the city’s personality and its success.
Artist: Cathy Simpson
Cathy Simpson is an illustrator and cartoonist who has spent most of her adult life in the West Midlands. She has illustrated many children’s books, exhibited at the Royal Birmingham Society of Artists, and been Head of Art at Bromsgrove Hall and Edgbaston High School.
These days, she works purely as a professional artist – and hopes to delight everyone with bright colours and a huge sense of fun!
Sponsor: Pertemps Network
Auction Price: £6000
The Big Hoot captured the imagination of everyone in Birmingham and beyond, with hundreds of thousands of people taking to the streets with their Big Hoot Trail maps to explore the colourful invasion of individually designed owls. Taking in the city’s 10 districts, tourists and residents alike enjoyed their owl adventure, discovering and celebrating the extraordinary creativity produced by many of Birmingham’s artistic community and over 25,000 young people.
The Big Hoot owls went under the hammer on 15 October 2015 at The Big Hoot auction sponsored by Vodafone and we are thrilled to have smashed our target by raising the incredible sum of £508,035!
The money raised from the auction will support Birmingham Children’s Hospital Charity’s £3.65m Star Appeal. This appeal will enable us to create a first of its kind, a Rare Diseases Centre in the UK specifically for children. It will provide co-ordinated care, treatment, support and most importantly hope to children and families living with a rare or undiagnosed condition.
In addition the auction raised £15,000 for G’owl’d by Temper with proceeds going to Edward’s Trust, and £7,800 for Fleet and Free with proceeds going to Birchfield Harriers.
So thank you - we simply couldn’t have done it without you.
Artists have played a major role in The Big Hoot, creating almost 100 owl sculptures. We would like to thank all the artists for their incredible creativity and hard work.
Professional artists from Birmingham, the wider Midlands region and further afield have created extraordinary giant owls that are all unique in style and character and represent the city’s creativity, history and heritage, music, fashion, architecture and attractions.
Birmingham is home to a wealth of artistic and creative individuals and communities and many award-winning and nationally and internationally acclaimed artists. We are delighted with the response from Birmingham’s creative community and are thrilled to work in collaboration with them to transform the streets, squares and parks of the city.
For five months artists have been creating owls in their studios, at home and in The Big Hoot Artists’ Studio at the Custard Factory in Digbeth. Their inspiring and innovative designs have been realised in genres including graffiti, illustration, fine art, graphics, typography, mosaic and new media. They have worked with both community groups and with corporates to realise ideas and create their stunning designs.
The Big Hoot not only provides a high quality and ambitious free public event for families but also supports the creativity of artists and celebrates talent and diversity. The Big Hoot has provided an inspiring relationship between the city and the arts.
The artists have also reached out to communities enabling more people to participate in the arts, to experience working with professional artists and to be inspiring and inspired. From the north to the south of the city residents groups, youth groups and older peoples’ groups have been collaborating with artists to generate ideas, design and create owls for The Big Hoot.
Creativity is everywhere but the opportunity to participate is not. A range of activities have been programmed within Birmingham’s diverse communities and people from the age of 3 – 97 and from wards within the city boundaries have contributed to The Big Hoot and helped make the event extraordinary. Our projects have seen artists working with hundreds of residents and community members including children in looked after care, older peoples’ clubs, young people and residents organisations to design and decorate the owls displayed as part of the 10 week public event.

Yes, i'm aware of imperfections on this: background distraction, large areas of shadows and inaccurate focus. But this one was the best among many other attempts, which is capable of demonstrating the genuine expression on a hardworking horse's face.
I don't say this for justifying my carelessness, but i believe that sometimes the power of the moment overwhelms technical correctness. So, i hope it makes do :)
