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.

Beach Bums - Damara Terns Take a Well-Deserved Break in South Africa!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this picture-perfect moment captured by Alan Weaving, a group of Damara Terns can be seen enjoying some much-needed R&R on the sandy shores of Cape Recife Nature Reserve. These rare and endemic seabirds, known for their stunning black caps and striking white plumage, have made themselves right at home along the western seaboard of Africa. With their sternidae charm and piscivorous appetites, these feathered friends are quite the catch! It's no wonder they've chosen to rest here amidst the coastal habitats that stretch from Algoa Bay to Ghana. As they bask under the warm African sun, it's clear that life is just beachy for these delightful creatures. Gathered in a tight-knit flock of four, these Damara Terns showcase their strong sense of community as they soak up the tranquil atmosphere. The rhythmic sound of crashing waves serves as nature's lullaby while they take turns keeping an eye out for any potential fishy feasts lurking beneath the crystal-clear waters. This awe-inspiring scene reminds us why places like Cape Recife Nature Reserve exist – to protect and preserve precious wildlife moments like this one. So next time you find yourself yearning for a peaceful getaway or seeking solace by the sea, remember our fine-feathered friends who know how to truly embrace relaxation on those sandy beaches
