The River Wye is a sumptuous record of an important and beautiful landscape. In breathtaking colour photographs, Barry Needle captures the essence of the river, from its source high in the mountains of mid-Wales to its entry in to the sea under the towering Severn suspension bridge.

Barry Needle was born in Port Talbot, south Wales. He has worked in a steelworks and in parcel distribution, and now lives in Llanelli. Once a motorcycle racer, he spends his spare time expanding his portfolio of photographs of the south Wales landscape. This is his first book.
