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 hilarious portrait captured at Uganda Wildlife Education Centre, we are introduced to the magnificent and slightly eccentric Shoebill (Balaeniceps rex). With its gigantic beak resembling an oversized shoe, this East African native is not your average stork! With a face that could only be described as comically threatening, our feathered friend seems to have mastered the art of eye contact. Its captivating gaze draws you in, leaving you wondering if it's about to crack a joke or challenge you to a staring contest. This captive beauty stands out from the crowd with its funny antics and larger-than-life personality. It's no wonder why visitors flock to see this wetland dweller at Entebbe's wildlife education center. The Shoebill may look like it stepped right out of a cartoon, but don't let its playful appearance fool you. This bird means business when it comes to survival in the swampy marshes of Africa. Its outsized beak helps it catch fish and other prey with ease, making it both impressive and intimidating. So next time you're looking for some laughter therapy or want an encounter with nature's own clown shoes, come meet the one-of-a-kind Shoebill Stork! Just remember: don't forget your sense of humor – these birds take their footwear very seriously!
