			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Montague Redknap was born in 1886 and was from West Norwood ( now known as Lambeth ) and married in St. Martin&#8217;s-in-the-Field, just off Trafalgar Square in London, in 1913.  He married Miss Alice R. Houghton, of Southport.  Its possible he is a relative, but I haven&#8217;t been able to go far enough back to check this.  if you know any information about him, I would love to know.</p>
<p>Below is a film he made travelling from Leeds to Quetta in Pakistan.</p>

<p>He is mentioned in a few places on the web and I was lucky enough to have two stories forwarded from a long lost cousin in Australia.</p>
<p><strong>The Mercury</strong> (Hobart). Tuesday 10 June 1913. Page 4.</p>
<blockquote><p>Mr. Montague Redknap, of West Norwood, who was married last month at St. Martin&#8217;s-in-the-Field, Trafalgar-square, to Miss Alice R. Houghton, of Southport, met his wife as the result of motoring without goggles, says the &#8220;Daily Mirror.&#8221; He became temporarily blind, and was sent to Newmarket Hospital, where for some weeks he had to lie with his eyes bandaged. Though unable to see her he at once fell in love with the voice of the nurse whose duty it was to look after him. In due course the bandages were taken off the patient&#8217;s eyes, and he found that his nurse was quite as attractive as her voice had led him to believe she would be. Before he left the hospital, Miss Houghton had promised to become his Bride.</p>
<p>( I love this story ! )</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>The Argus</strong> (Melbourne). Friday 1 May 1925. Page 19.</p>
<blockquote><p>North Australia, British Expedition, London, April 29.</p>
<p>Mr. M. Terry, who drove a motor-car across Australia last year, and his colleagues, Mr. R. A. Prescott, topographical survey expert, and Mr. M. Redknap, cinematographer, were the guests at Luncheon of the Guy Motors Co., which is providing cars for an expedition in North Australia. The chairman (Mr. Sydney Guy), who proposed the toast of the expedition, said that the &#8220;all-British project&#8221; would traverse 3,000 miles, of which 500 would be across unknown territory.</p>
<p>Mr. Terry said that in addition to Mr. Prescott and Mr. Redknap, a member of the House of Commons would accompany the expedition, and two other persons would be picked up in Australia. Two caterpillar motor-cars and a motor-cycle would be used.</p>
<p>The Agent-General for Western Australia (Mr. Colebatch) said that he hoped that more rapid and cheaper transport would be provided for developing the unoccupied north.</p></blockquote>
<p>He was a cinematographer who went on an expedition from Darwin to Broome with <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Terry">Michael Terry</a> in 1925. Terry was also born in England but spend most of his life exploring the outback of Australia, mainly by car. He wrote a number of books ( which I will try and track down ).</p>
<p>I have also found mention of him here at <a href="http://www.harappa.com/bremner/author.html">harappa.com</a>.  I have mailed the site to see if they have any more information.</p>

<p>I did the photography, layouts and the post tweaking.  Not easy and some of the images are rougher than the others, but the staff knew their ideas were a little more ambitious than previous years and where very happy with the work.</p>
<p>Most of the images are montages of photos, this was done because we wanted to ensure all the children could be seen, so shots like the October one if you look carefully the same tree can be seen more than a few times!</p>
<p>The images have been sent to the printers and I should see the finished product pretty soon.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A little experiment into Page Rank, one of the considering factors used by Google to position a site on a web page.  The following sites are all connected to or written by me.</p>
<p>Page Rank reflects our view of the importance of web pages by considering more than 500 million variables and 2 billion terms.  Pages that Google believe are important pages receive a higher Page Rank and are more likely to appear at the top of the search results.</p>
<p>Page Rank also considers the importance of each page that casts a vote, as votes from some pages are considered to have greater value, thus giving the linked page greater value.  They have always taken a pragmatic approach to help improve search quality and create useful products, and their technology uses the collective intelligence of the web to determine a page&#8217;s importance.</p>
<p>More info about page rank can be found on <a title="Wiki info on page rank" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PageRank" target="_blank">wikipedia.org</a>.</p>
<p>In no particular order&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright" title="Artwork by Tori Treasure" src="/images/newsimages/0909/toritresure01.jpg" alt="Artwork by Tori Treasure" width="250" height="332" />Local artist <a title="Tori Treasure" href="http://www.toritreasure.co.uk/" target="_blank">Tori Treasure</a> was over today to get some of her recent artwork photographed.</p>
<p>Her most recent project has been connected to the launch of the forthcoming book  <a title="Concrete Operational Book" href="http://www.operationconcrete.com/" target="_blank">Concrete Operational</a>.</p>
<p>She had trouble finding a way of getting her artwork ready for the launch parties book.  Scanning gets very expensive and tricky when art is mounted and bigger than A4, so photography is a very simple and cost effective route to take.</p>
<p>Finding me via one of my web clients websites ( <a title="Louise Hight - Basingstoke Artist" href="http://www.louisehight.com/" target="_blank">Louise Hight</a> ) she contacted me and we met up earlier today to take the photos for the book and <a title="Tori Treasure" href="http://www.toritreasure.co.uk/" target="_blank">her website</a>.  We photographed some 20 or so pieces together in RAW / DNG format for her to ready for the publication.</p>
<p>She had some great stuff that Nadine liked as well, so its easy to see how she does well with getting her work onto album covers and books etc.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The photos I took of the Bramley IronMum event a few weeks ago have been printed in the Basingstoke Gazette (last Friday) and without permission / credit in the Gazettes website.</p>
<p><a title="Gazette Article on the IronMum event" href="http://www.basingstokegazette.co.uk/news/4636495.Mums_have_got_iron_will/" target="_new"><img class="aligncenter" title="Ironmum photo used on the Gazette website" src="/images/newsimages/gazette0909.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="390" /></a></p>
<p>The Gazette forgot to send anyone to photograph it for themselves, and asked to use my shots, they didnt want to pay anything which I thought was odd for a commercial operation, but for the Ironmum organisers I allowed them to print it.  I didn&#8217;t give permission for them to use it on their website, especially without giving at least some credit.</p>
<p>The article and my image can be seen <a title="Gazette Article on the IronMum event" href="http://www.basingstokegazette.co.uk/news/4636495.Mums_have_got_iron_will/" target="_new">here</a>.</p>
