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.

Speedy Sailfish and Sneaky Sardines - A Masterclass in Underwater Teamwork!

EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print captured by David Hall, we witness the incredible collaboration between three Atlantic sailfish (Istiophorus albicans) as they execute a perfectly synchronized hunting strategy. These fast and agile predators are on a mission to corral a school of Spanish sardines (Sardinella aurita) into a tight baitball, trapping them at the water's surface. With their sleek bodies slicing through the ocean currents, these majestic sailfish showcase their predatory prowess. Their bill-like snouts ready to strike with lightning speed, they work together like a well-oiled machine. It's an underwater ballet of cooperation and precision! Meanwhile, the clever Spanish sardines try to outmaneuver their pursuers. They dart and weave in unison, desperately attempting to escape their fate as delectable prey for these voracious hunters. The vibrant waters surrounding Isla Mujeres in Mexico's Gulf of Mexico serve as the backdrop for this thrilling display of animal behavior. This snapshot captures not only nature's beauty but also its raw power and survival instincts. So next time you find yourself marveling at teamwork or feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges, remember these remarkable creatures beneath the waves. The sailfish and sardines remind us that sometimes working together is not just beneficial but essential for success – even if it means evading becoming someone else's dinner!
