17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 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 17x15 inches (431x381mm). 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 Foodie Finds Fine Dining on Hippo's Back - A Tale of African Jacana's Epicurean Adventure!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot captured by P. Morris, we witness the incredible symbiotic relationship between an African Jacana and a rather surprised hippopotamus in Murchison Falls National Park, Uganda. As the sun sets over the majestic River Nile, our adventurous avian protagonist fearlessly embarks on a culinary quest atop its hefty companion. With its long legs delicately balancing on the hippo's back, our feathered foodie scans for delectable morsels amidst the lush waterways. This mixed-species collaboration showcases nature's remarkable co-operation at play as these two unlikely friends navigate their shared habitat. The African Jacana flaunts its vibrant plumage while showcasing impressive foraging skills that would make any Michelin-starred chef envious. With each step, it gracefully dances across lily pads and reeds in search of hidden treasures beneath the water's surface. Meanwhile, our unsuspecting hippo plays host to this fine-dining experience with unwavering patience and grace. Its massive frame provides stability as it lazily basks in cool river waters while offering prime real estate for our audacious bird friend to explore. This awe-inspiring moment reminds us that even in the animal kingdom, unexpected alliances can be forged through mutual benefit and cooperation. So next time you find yourself dining out with friends or exploring new territories like these extraordinary creatures do –
