SOUTH Wales' most beautiful locations - captured over four years - are the stars of a new guidebook by Pembrokeshire photographer Drew Buckley.

'Photographing South Wales' is the result of years of travelling, photographing and writing, and features beauty spots in the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, Brecon Beacons, Gower, Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion, Powys and south east Wales.

Over 448 pages, this essential guide plots some of the country's most beautiful and photo-worthy landscapes.

All words and images are by award-winning landscape and wildlife photographer Drew, whose work has featured in national magazines and newspapers.

His clients include Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority, the National Trust and the RSPB.

In 2017 Drew received his fourth Highly Commended at the British Wildlife Photography Awards.

The book also features maps, the best times to visit, travel and accessibility notes, the best places to stay, eat and drink, and top tips on how to capture your own photos, whether using professional DSLR equipment or your mobile phone.

Described as an "essential companion for anyone with a camera who is visiting south Wales", the book covers golden beaches, ragged coastlines, towering waterfalls and majestic mountains.

Readers have called it a "fantastic gift for anyone who loves this area, or even lives away, to remind them of where true beauty lies".
