Poster Prints are of comparable archival quality to our Photographic prints, they are simply printed on thinner Poster Paper. Whilst we only use Photographic Prints in our frames, you can frame Poster Prints if they are carefully supported to prevent sagging over time.

Poster prints are budget friendly enlarged prints in standard poster paper sizes (A0, A1, A2, A3 etc). Whilst poster paper is sometimes thinner and less durable than our other paper types, they are still ok for framing and should last many years. Our Archival Quality Photo Prints and Fine Art Paper Prints are printed on higher quality paper and the choice of which largely depends on your budget.

Estimated Image Size (if not cropped) is 39.6cm x 59.4cm (15.6" x 23.4")

Estimated Product Size is 42cm x 59.4cm (16.5" x 23.4")

These are individually made so all sizes are approximate

Artwork printed orientated as per the preview above, with portrait (vertical) orientation to match the source image.

EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this close-up, wildlife photographer Steve Hopkin introduces us to the bizarre and slightly chubby world of cockchafer larvae. Hailing from the United Kingdom, these young grubs may not win any beauty contests, but they sure know how to make an impression! With their fat bodies and peculiarly shaped heads, these rook worms are a sight to behold. Their unique appearance can only be described as a cross between a beetle and a cockroach – talk about an unexpected combination! But don't let their looks fool you; these pests play an essential role in our gardens. While some might find them ugly or even repulsive, there's no denying that they have character. Just look at those expressive faces! These European critters are masters of survival and adaptability. So next time you stumble upon one of these fascinating creatures while gardening in the UK, take a moment to appreciate their quirky charm up close. Who knows? You might just discover that beneath that "ugly" exterior lies something truly beautiful – nature's way of reminding us that appearances aren't everything!
