A programme exploring Pembrokeshire secret beauty spots is due to be aired on BBC2 at 7.30 tonight (Tuesday).

Photographer David Wilson from Llangwm explored the hidden nooks and crannies of Pembrokeshire while filming My Secret Wales.

In the programme, David talks about his work as one of the country’s leading landscape photographers and expands on areas of the local landscape that inspire him to produce his acclaimed work.

On a journey from the Cleddau Estuary near his home and onto Treleddyd Fawr near St Davids, he discusses his love of photography and introduces the viewer to aspects of the county that some people may have overlooked.

David said: “In Pembrokeshire there is a focus on the coast which is totally understandable, as we have a coastal National Park which is absolutely stunning and the envy of all that experience it.

“But there is a lot more to Pembrokeshire than the coast and in this programme I hope I have managed to show that.”

On his travels he talks to well-known artist Graham Brace, also from Llangwm, about the beauty of the estuary and what makes it such a special strip of water for photographers and artists alike.

He then visits Glyn Griffiths at Treleddyd Fawr, probably the most original example of a cottage in the ‘Pembrokeshire vernacular’ style still surviving in the county. It’s also a building that has given David great pleasure in photographing.

Producer and director Carwyn Jones, who worked on the programme with David, said: “I worked on another programme with David a couple of years ago, so he was my first choice as our guide to the hidden nooks and crannies of Pembrokeshire.

“His knowledge of the landscape and his absolute passion for what he does is truly infectious and I think that comes across in the programme.”

Through his work David seeks to capture the county’s many different faces; the windswept coast of mid-winter, a sunny spring dawn on the Cleddau Estuary, a derelict cottage, and the gentle contours of the Preseli mountains.

He added: “I photograph the Pembrokeshire I see throughout the year.

“Living here I witness both its beauty and bleakness.”
