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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this close-up, we witness the comical charm of a European Shag in all its breeding plumage glory. Perched proudly on its nest amidst the breathtaking Farne Islands backdrop, this avian superstar is ready to steal the show! With an expression that could rival any stand-up comedian, our feathered friend seems to be saying, "Hey there! Check out my fabulous head feathers!". And boy, are they fabulous indeed! This stylish shag knows how to rock those sleek black locks with finesse. As it sits atop its cozy nest overlooking the majestic Atlantic coast of Northumberland, England, one can't help but wonder what hilarious tales this mischievous bird has up its sleeve. Perhaps it's regaling fellow shags with stories of daring fish hunts or recounting epic battles for prime nesting spots. But let's not forget about that magnificent beak – a true marvel of nature's design. Perfectly adapted for diving into temperate waters and snatching up delectable marine treats like a pro. It's no wonder these charismatic cormorants have become icons along Britain's coastal landscapes. So next time you find yourself strolling along an English clifftop or exploring the enchanting Farne Islands reserve, keep your eyes peeled for these delightful characters.
