I’ve just finished Stories within Stories and from the very first page, Gavin’s unique voice shines through. His ability to weave stories around his breathtaking images makes this book stand out from the crowd. Each photograph is not just a visual treat but a narrative in itself, drawing you into the scene and making you feel as if you’re standing right there with him.
The tips are incredibly useful, whether you’re a seasoned pro or just starting out. He breaks down complex concepts into easy-to-understand advice, making the art of photography accessible to everyone. The practical tips are seamlessly integrated into the narratives, so you’re learning without even realizing it—a testament to Hardcastle’s skill as both a teacher and a writer.
And then there’s the humor. Gavin’s wit is sharp, making you laugh out loud while you learn. His humorous anecdotes and lighthearted commentary keep the book engaging from cover to cover. It’s rare to find a photography book that’s as entertaining as it is informative, but Stories within Stories strikes that perfect balance.
Hey Gavin.
I really appreciate watching your adventures. Your talent and wit are amazing.
Recently, I have begun to sell all my photographic gear due to some injuries and financial stuff that got in the way.
I will miss this hobby. But, watching your videos gives me some sense that I am still out there taking photos.

Thanks so much for the kind words Jeff 🙂
Thank you, your ‘Stories Withuin Stories’ arrived, Monday, 30th June 2025, in good conditon.
I note that it was posted on the same day as the day ordered.
It is a present, but as I have been invited to look, I shan’t resist the strong temptation to look at some of the pictures,
Especially having watched your absorbing and highly entertaining tutorials.
Again, thank you.
