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.

Nature's Fortress - A White-winged Dove Finds Sanctuary in the Saguaro Spines
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot by Thomas Dressler, a White-winged Dove fearlessly perches on her well-protected nest nestled within the spiky embrace of a Giant Saguaro cactus. The image perfectly encapsulates the harmonious relationship between wildlife and their environment in the American Southwest. As an emblematic symbol of this arid region, the majestic saguaro stands tall as an indicator of the Sonoran Desert's resilience. And here it is, serving as both shelter and fortress for this devoted dove mother. Talk about unconventional real estate! With its delicate white wings contrasting against the vibrant green hues of its prickly abode, our feathered friend seems to be enjoying all the perks that come with living amidst nature's own security system. This extraordinary photograph captures not only a rare glimpse into avian family life but also highlights how national parks like Saguaro National Park (eastern section) play a crucial role in preserving these unique ecosystems across North America. So next time you find yourself strolling through Arizona's breathtaking landscapes, keep your eyes peeled for these remarkable sights – where even doves dare to build their nests among giants!
