23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

Feathered Family Feast - A Hoopoe's Delightful Dinner Date!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot by Peter Steyn, we witness a heartwarming scene straight from the avian world. PS-4157 captures an African Hoopoe in action as it diligently tends to its hungry brood. The adult hoopoe gracefully hovers mid-air, showcasing its impressive flight skills while clutching a mouthwatering morsel of food in its beak. With mouths agape and eyes wide with anticipation, the young hoopoes eagerly await their turn for a delectable meal. It's a true display of parenting prowess and nurturing instinct as the mother bird effortlessly balances her airborne acrobatics with ensuring her offspring are well-fed. The vibrant colors of these magnificent birds add an extra touch of magic to the moment captured on film. The striking contrast between their cinnamon-brown plumage and black-and-white striped wings is simply mesmerizing. As they communicate through soft calls and gentle begging gestures, one can almost hear the chorus of chirps echoing through the air. This enchanting photograph serves as a reminder that even in the animal kingdom, love knows no bounds – whether it's expressed through feeding rituals or simple acts of care. So let this image transport you into nature's own theater where aerial ballet meets parental devotion!
