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.

Rockin' and Rollin' with the Limpets - A Tide-Tastic Feeding Frenzy!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by Bill Coster, we dive into the mesmerizing world of Common Limpets as they leave their mark on the rocky shores of Barray in Orkney. As low tide unveils a hidden treasure trove, these marine molluscs waste no time in showing off their feeding prowess. With an intricate network of feeding paths etched onto the rocks like nature's very own GPS system, it's clear that these limpets mean business! They navigate their way through rock pools with precision and determination, leaving behind a trail that resembles an animal track extravaganza. The vibrant coastal scenery of the Orkney Islands sets the stage for this lively group performance. These Scottish islands boast some of Europe's most breathtaking landscapes, making them a playground for wildlife enthusiasts like never before. As we marvel at this snapshot from Mother Nature's album, let us not forget to appreciate the tides that orchestrate such magical moments. The ebb and flow create opportunities for creatures big and small to showcase their survival skills - even if it means leaving behind temporary artwork on ancient rocks. So next time you find yourself exploring Scotland's rugged coastline or daydreaming about European adventures, remember to keep your eyes peeled for these fascinating limpets and their extraordinary feeding paths. Who knew something as simple as a mollusc could bring so much joy?
