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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot by John Mason, we dive into the enchanting world of freshwater pearl mussels. These magnificent shellfish are not only a delightful sight to behold but also legally protected in the UK. Talk about being nature's VIPs! As we gaze at this print, it's hard not to be mesmerized by their unique beauty and intricate patterns. The shells glisten like precious pearls, reminding us of the hidden treasures that lie within our natural habitats. With their edible reputation, these molluscs might make your mouth water just thinking about them! But fear not, dear friends; let's appreciate these creatures for their ecological importance rather than as a seafood delicacy. Imagine stumbling upon such a treasure trove while strolling along a serene beach - an unexpected encounter with Mother Nature herself! It serves as a gentle reminder that even seemingly ordinary moments can hold extraordinary wonders if we keep our eyes open. So let's raise our imaginary glasses filled with sparkling mussel juice (non-alcoholic variety!) and toast to the protection of these marvelous beings. May they continue gracing our shores and reminding us of the magic that lies beneath the surface. Kudos to John Mason for capturing this awe-inspiring image – truly an ode to wildlife preservation and appreciation!
