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 Striped Snackers - Cinnabar Caterpillars on a Ragwort Buffet!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot by Duncan Usher, we witness the incredible dining habits of these young Cinnabar Moth caterpillars in Hessen, Germany. With their striking black and orange stripes, these voracious larvae are feasting on their favorite foodplant - the Ragwort. It's a true insect banquet as these ravenous caterpillars chomp away with gusto! The vibrant colors of the moths' future wings are already visible, hinting at the beauty that awaits them after metamorphosis. These little critters seem to have found an all-you-can-eat buffet right in nature's backyard! The scene is reminiscent of a bustling restaurant where each caterpillar has its own table setting amidst the lush green foliage. Their synchronized munching creates a symphony of crunches and rustling leaves that only adds to the charm of this wildlife spectacle. As they devour leaf after leaf, one can't help but marvel at Mother Nature's intricate design. It serves as a reminder that even tiny creatures like these Cinnabar Moth caterpillars play an essential role in maintaining ecological balance. So next time you stumble upon some ragwort plants while exploring Europe or the United Kingdom, take a moment to appreciate these striped gourmands and their insatiable appetite for life!
